Lagos, Nigeria

This Lagos ready-to-wear label builds its collections around adire, sourcing the resist-dyed cloth directly from artisans in Osogbo who still hand-tie and indigo-dye it using techniques passed down through generations. Dresses, matching sets and trousers are cut from that fabric rather than printed imitations.
