ARISE AFRICA FASHION WEEK: DAY 3 - - LANRE DA SILVA-AJAYI (NIGERIA)

LANRE DA SILVA-AJAYI (ARISE AFRICA FASHION WEEK 2009)

the always thrilling lanre da silva-ajayi (LDA) put on a showstopper at Arise Africa Fashion Week consisting almost exclusively of a delectable array of dresses. LDA's victorian and "throwback" sensibilities seeped through her choice of tartan and lace, while her choice of flowers as embroidery added an endearing touch of spring. with her expert hand, gorgeous details (ruching, gathering, layering), and her generous use of shimmer and metallics, Lanre Da Silva-Ajayi is set to remain a strong contender for Africa's top talent.
