Fashion Industry

The fashion industry is a worldwide integration sector that works to meet the desire for clothing and dictates the trends for what should be worn. The production part of the industry, that takes the concept of the apparel all the way to the purchaser, is made up of four segments.  This segment includes those who produce the necessary raw material for the apparel, those who create the pieces, those who advertise and market the goods and those who sell the goods. These are the people who are important in the fashion industry.

Nigeria Fashion

Fashion in Nigeria has always been multiple, showing its many ethic groups, religion and cultures. Nigeria fashion industry has developed more talents, exposure, structure, training and method of earning more funds and gaining more recognition. Many now work in the industry as fashion model, cloths designer, fashion photographer, makeup artist and lots more opportunities. This exposure as brought in lots of fashion weekend show like GTB Fashion weekend which has grown lots of attendance, with long streets dedicated to fashion retailers in the major cities of Nigeria.

Latest trend in Nigeria

For the lovers of outfits, Adire is widely en vogue this year, as it been much indication in the last year fashion show, the trend is making a strong statement in fashion now and the rich prints and colors are beautiful. Adire which is our traditional attire, got its origin from Abeokuta, Ogun State can be difficult print to pull off, but when we see our designers incorporating these bright and colorful pieces into their everyday lives, we are duly impressed. short suits are all making its way back in the fashion trend. oversized wears, (coats, blazers) sheer dresses, polka dots, lace and fringes are mostly expected to be popular this year.

At the moment in Nigeria, sandals are making more popularities, as well as masculine flat shoes for ladies, masculine flat strapped sandals, statement sneakers and block heels are expected to me highly en vogue this year, as we already saw all this at the last year GTBank Fashion Weekend among several designers.

Accessories like bucket hats, berets, biker caps, retro shades, bold belts, waist bags and mini bags are widely trending in the industry. Taibo Bacar already gave us a dazzling taste of his mini bags at the last years Fashion weekend.

It is time to turn our attention to fashion trends that are projected to be big this year. Looking back from last year’s fashion and runway shows and trending pieces, some outfits and accessories are staying put, others are making a fresh comeback while a couple are new trends.
