LOOK BOOK:Hear me, See me, Touch me! ‘Windy Path’ AW16 Collection by Orange Culture

The  ‘Windy Path’ 2016 collection, played further with this need by carefully etching Yoruba words such as Oju, Eti and Enu (Eyes, Ears and Mouth) across the knit wears like the hard to miss motifs of child like sketches of the human figure. This is the sort of collection that yearns for a closer study and understanding of its components.
Speaking on the inspiration behind this child-like, yet ruggedly matured collection, Adebayo Oke Lawal the designer behind the brand said: “[The shoot] Reminds me of the times when I felt alone before my talent helped me find my voice. Almost blown away by norms and expectations until I found out exactly what my channel of communication was supposed to be. Clothes helped me connect with the world. Before I could sketch I remember feeling misunderstood, not heard and unable to speak. For me clothes became my senses before I learnt how to confidently utilize my actual senses.”
