Nirvana, a word from the ancient Sanskrit meaning "to blow out", "liberation" or "freedom". It describes a state of profound peace of mind and release from suffering.
In this attempt, emerging fashion brand "awe! Lagos" presents a fashion collection dedicated to the freedom fight of the legendary Nelson Mandela. The creative director of the brand Apooyin Abiola employs zig zag patterns, vertical lines and print as a medium to tell a story of freedom creating casual, chick, sporty, simple and minimal ready to wear fashion pieces.
"The whole concept behind the collection is a fashion ensemble that releases the end user from the routine and trite fashion ensembles while still making a resounding fashion statement".
