Opis
Audacious, humorous, disruptive, and innovative are the bywords of these young creatives who, while drawing upon and revalorizing their heritage, offer an ultra-contemporary new perspective. The revolutionary designers-from Senegal to Nigeria to South Africa-are reinventing their textile and historical traditions: bazin fabrics blend with plastics, stretch gives body to woven cloth, mesh beading inspires knitwear designs, and the traditional adire print-championed by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and Michelle Obama-embellishes silk dresses and pencil skirts. Body-artists transform their face or hair into an ambulant social manifesto, and photographers-using clothing and accessories-shed new light onto questions of identity, gender, and color.
This volume celebrates a creative, effervescent generation, which-by breaking the rules and rewriting the narrative of the African continent-is inventing a new and resolutely African chapter in the history of fashion that is now resonating across the globe.
