ASOS Africa reveals Spring /Summer 2014 Collection

ASOS Africa has turned to Nigeria to source all the fabric for its SS14 Collection. All the lace have been sourced in Nigeria. The aim is for proceeds to help facilitate growth and empowerment to the artisans responsible for producing the pieces.

The collection which was made by the SOKO Kenya team celebrates the seasons biggest trends being lace as well as florals so it cant go wrong there!. They have utilised mix of lace often worn for traditional dress and occasion-wear in many Sub-Saharan countries on the continent. This version is a rainbow of pastels in a gorgeous peppermint through to bubblegum pinks. Organza overlays play a good role next to the delicate lace. In contrast they deliver sporty details and digital look prints in a monochrome colourway.
