Arise Magazine Fashion Week Catwalk Report: Bunmi Koko

In what may be described as one of the defining moments of Arise Magazine Fashion week, luxury design label, Bunmi Koko managed to showcase pieces from a combination of three collections and a masquerade performance! The young Nigerian Designer Bunmi Olaye, who is based in London put up an amazing performance on Day 3 of the Fashion week. The designs were styled to depict feminine strength and power, evident in the structured shoulders and paneled sleeves, as well as the models carrying royal-like staffs. However, the softer side emerges, with playful silk fabric, full textured skirts and fringed embroidery. Bumni Koko exudes sophisticated glamour.   

I call this "The Quadruple Effect" 

Amazing!
