spotlight: loza maleombho @ boston fashion expose

as promised, here's a look at loza maleombho's first collection, as shown at boston fashion expose a few days ago:

we're in all types of like with the layered ruffles and her use of traditional african fabrics like adire. several pieces caught our eyes (especially the Agoudam dress, complete with turquoise fringe benefits, as well as the expertly executed Abidjan jacket) and we can't wait to see this designer's future offerings!! bravo, loza maleombho.

(truth be told, we couldn't wait until boston fashion week to view the entire collection. the few pieces we saw on other blogs made us curious...so we shot the loza maleombho team an e-mail asking if we could see the entire lookbook in advance. we saw, we loved...and now we're excited to finally be able to share! happy viewing!)
