African Fashion by Sika

Filed Under Design, Fashion | Leave a Comment 

Sika Design Collection Vibrant colors and patterns are two things I associate with Africa which are found in the fabrics. Sika Designs integrates them into beautiful fashion wear. Urban styles paired with these colorful West African textiles result in a collection of extravagant, wearable dresses and blouses. Each fabric print is hand made using traditional methods and natural substances thus creating a limited edition of each print. I’m looking forward to seeing more African textiles used by the fashion industry. Hopefully they will also be fair trade concepts like this designer and keep using the local market to generate an income for those people involved. (photo: Sika)
