Adjoa Osei: Adapt Capsule Collection

19 Aug 2011

Venture into the heart of sub-Saharan Africa? at first glance it heralds the ambiance of west African folklore which verges into the signature woven fabric, though as folklore's go, this collection also conveys timeless and classical elements. London budding designer, Adjoa Osei describes it as 'Experimentally Classic', enhancing everyday wearable pieces for women, with an array of hand finished jersey vests, loose fitting tops and bright maxi skirts all emboldened with well placed accents of alluring color and print.

Adapt: Reshaping the way we view and wear prints. Adapt is an eight piece, limited edition capsule collection with hand woven detail. The focus of Adapt is clean lines and classic shapes with injections of print, colour and detail. As a prelude to the winter collection, Adapt explores the different ways that smart/casual wear can be enhanced by African print. Gone are the days when prints were sporadically featured in 'safari' inspired collections or dusted off for cultural celebrations. Prints defy seasonal trends, and can be dressed up or pared down. The options are infinite. Season by season, trend by trend, I invite you to join me in this creative dialogue. Adjoa Osei
