Some of the pieces from the collection were also displayed on Ntando’s Instagram feed, where she tagged the brand.

Iseyin, Nigeria – In Iseyin, a sleepy town in southwestern Nigeria, shaded spaces under trees, makeshift sheds and narrow alleys double as production hubs for aso-oke, a handwoven fabric indigenous to the Yoruba ethnic group.

Demand for the fabric has recently soared at home and abroad, boosted by Nigerians in the diaspora and the rising global popularity of the country's fashion and music culture.

Yet the artisans making it are resisting mechanization, insisting that handweaving is what makes it unique.

Our Fashion provides a platform for the display and preservation of the country’s cultural heritage, traditional designs, fabrics and styles.

At Fashion Revolution Nigeria, we are committed to the global movement calling for a fairer, safer, cleaner, more transparent fashion industry. We strive to challenge the status quo and transform the way fashion is produced, consumed, and perceived in Nigeria. We want to put an end to throwaway culture and shift to a system where materials are used for much longer, appreciated more, and nothing goes to waste.

Body diversity returns to London fashion week as wider industry heads ultra-thin

Body diversity has made a comeback at London fashion week despite a wider shift towards ultra-thinness in the fashion industry.

Emerging designers including Karoline Vitto, Phoebe English and Sinead Gorey included a wide range of body shapes on catwalks over the past four days. Sizes have ranged from a UK size 10-16, a category referred to as mid-size in the industry, to plus-size, also known as curve models, which measures from a UK size 18 upwards. Sample size, often referred to as straight models, ranges from a UK 4-8.

The move comes at a time when experts have expressed concerns about previous efforts towards size inclusivity in the industry being curtailed with a worrying return to promoting thinness. Last year, Vogue Business reported that plus-size representation made up just 0.9% of catwalk looks across the womenswear collections shown in New York, London, Milan and Paris in September.
