Who Wore What: Alek Wek in Duro Olowu [Financial Times, May 2010]


Interestingly enough, several of the global/Africa-inspired spreads we've featured have included Duro Olowu pieces [see here and here]. This one is no different. We love the chic belted cardigan but not the way it's styled on Alek Wek -- a little too loose/sloppy for our taste. 

We wonder: will a day come when "tribal" editorials will feature other African designers? We know Duro's the darling of the fashion world but surely there's plenty of room for other talented folks!
