Nigerian/Nigeria based designers had a great outing this year; slowing getting to a point where fashion enthusiasts can sit back in Nigeria and shop Nigerian brands all year round.
We have those designers who have made a name for themselves over time and the emerging ones, last year we predicted the designers to look out for in 2014 (and we were spot on!), we are back with the 2015 edition and we hope you will watch out for them. Check on our picks for 2015:
1. Orange Culture

With the fashion brand owned by Adebayo Oke-Lawal who doubles as the Artistic Director; Orange Culture had a huge exposure/rave reviews this year with features in international press as L'Uomo Vogue, Vanity Fair, a visit to the Pitti Uomo amongst others.
