Deola by Deola Sagoe S/S2015 Collection – “Wings by Deola”

This stunning collection was showcased by Deola Sagoe in New York. She recently released the official lookbook images and it's haute.

Deola drew inspiration from her daughter’s class project which entailed part artistic and part scientific, based on moths, flies and butterflies.

According to her, “Developing my own fabrics is essential for me. Every time you do it, it’s fresh; the drawings, the process of making Adire, starting with indigo and then just making music with colour and patterns, fabric jazz. I wanted to play with floaty fabrics this time. It was just my mood. Of course I’m still in the throws of my love affair with Aso Oke which is still a huge feature in this collection.“

“Wings by Deola” consists of 37 pieces whose names were derived from the characters in Shakespeare’s plays such as, Ophelia (the helper), Valeria (strong, valiant) and Juno (protector).
