“Lagos Fashion Week Off-Site phenomenon refers to events or activities that take place outside of the main venue of Lagos Fashion Week, which is the Federal Palace Hotel in Lagos.
These could include satellite shows, exhibitions, pop-up shops, workshops, or other fashion-related gatherings held in various locations across Lagos.In my opinion, this makes it a proper fashion week — a way to extend the reach and impact of the main event, showcasing diverse aspects of the fashion industry and creating a broader platform for designers, brands, and enthusiasts to connect and engage with the fashion community.
Since the COVID-19 pandemic, LFW has learned to be fluid and adapt with the times, as have designers. This year, we begin the fashion week with an incredible opening by MAI ATAFO.
Known for his innovative and inspiring work in the industry, the ATAFO EXPERIENCE IS ONE TO LOOK OUT FOR!Other off-site events this season that got me excited because of their body of work are
SISIANO, EJIRO AMOS TARIFI, and ORANGE CULTURE. These brands have consistently demonstrated amazing craftsmanship and a diverse perspective on the word FASHION.
I mean, their interpretation of fashion and ART — yes, ART — in their work is incredible and something to look forward to!
I think OFF-SITES FOR LFW HAVE COME TO STAY. #my2cents
