Budding Nigerian fashion label EsaLagos finally unveils their long-awaited prêt-a-porter collection called Meraki just in time for the holidays.
The debut collection represents a new phase for the EsaLagos woman, with classical silhouettes and elegant styles reflecting a relaxed yet glamorous approach to everyday wear.
The designer was drawn to the juxtaposition of femininity and strength enclosed within today’s woman.
Fabrics used for this collection are soft, elegantly feminine. They include chiffon, sheer, crepe, scuba, print, and silk, playing host to a stunning display of fringe, layered sleeves, and lots more.
We sense you are imagining the dress on you already! What better way to look chic, trendy and classy all in one this holiday season.
Lookbook Review:
Beautiful collection. Nice selection of models, but would’ve been better if the models had selected appropriate underwears for the shoot as the ones used were obvious and distracting, especially on the jumpsuit. A lighter fabric for the underwear would’ve worked well, maybe that way it won’t show. My favs are the Shift dress used as the featured image (Don’t know if it’s because of how the model was laughing, but I love it!) the jumpsuit with fringe details(no wonder I noticed the distracting underwear). Nice colour selection and good setting, but I think the setting would’ve been nicer if the shoot was done in areas where these kinds of outfits are worn to… makes it easier to picture, but that’s just one thought… this is fashion and a lot of things can certainly go, abi what do you think?
