Kim K rocking Ankara |
Looks like the Ankara prints have became a craze in the Nigerian fashion scene. I can say that it’s now not only worn to regular Saturday ‘owambe’ parties and Sundays to church, but has also has found a place in the closets of Nigerian designers, and of course, the runways.
These days, a large percentage of Nigerian designers parade at least one ankara piece in their collections, giving the fabric a boost. Perhaps one factor which has endeared the ankara prints to the hearts of Nigerian designers is the light nature of the fabrics combined with the array of colours and patterns it offers.
These colours and patterns are such that when understood and properly ‘mixed and matched’ with a complimentary fabric, can expand the creativity of a designer and help produce varieties of a particular design. Little wonder this trend is still rocking, with American celebrities including Beyonce and her sister, Solange, Fergie and Alicia Keys as fans.
Here are some pictures of the mix-matching trend.
