I am here to show off a Nigerian fashion brand, Design for Love (DFL).
I first worked with the brand in 2018 when I started blogging. DFL was the first Nigerian brand to send me pieces and I am still grateful that they believed in me, a newbie at that point. I did this post here and here on their ankara collection in 2018.
It is only natural that I start with their brand in this collaboration showing off Nigerian fashion brands with my blogger babes but this time in 2 designs from their adire also known as tye and dye collection.
Tye and dye which is popularly known as adire in Nigeria is an indigo dyed clothe made mostly in the south western region but embraced and worn by all.
Adire became a thing on the international fashion scene last year and a lot of people got into it with top brands designing a lot of their pieces with caricature prints as far as I am concerned because the real adire is the one made in Abeokuta, Nigeria (argue with your keyboard) lol.
Now to the outfits, THE dress. I love how classy the style is....made me look like I have my life together and the beautiful mix of lace with the adire sealed the deal for me. I didn't do much as per styling as I didn't want to take away from the beauty that the dress exudes on its own.
Now to the wide leg pants and top which is my absolute favorite because value for money as I can style them together and as separates. I plan to restyle them as separates soon and link them to this post. The style of the sleeves and how wide the pants are, also added to the allure of this set. Most importantly is the quality of the adire....second to none and I have seen and worn several. The quality of both outfits is top notch with perfect finishing. I recommend.
I said a lot about the Nigerian fashion brand, DFL in the posts here and here so I am not going to repeat myself. You can find them via their website here and Instagram here
This epic return to my blog was prompted by this collaboration with four Nigerian fashion bloggers @bytonye @debwritesblog @princessaudu @the_estephany to promote fashion brands in Nigeria, Check out their blogs to discover more brands that I’m sure you will definitely love.
Which of the 2 styles is your favorite?
See you soon.
