Vlisco&co has travelled to Nigeria’s culturally rich Igbo land with its creative Nigerian network to deeply research the ethnic group and its relation with their fabrics, after which there was a round table gathering in Lagos to discuss the research and the concept of Vlisco&co’s next edition; the result is a unified visual narrative that mixes a contemporary own story and a research process, thereby exploring the old and the new Igbo culture and the traditions in relations with Vlisco fabrics. 

This fashion endeavour that is entrenched in culture is a collaboration that explores the myths, mystery and magic of the igbo culture and their world of colours and symbols, enhancing the richness of their roots and enchant with a vision of their future.

To celebrate this edition, Vlisco&co incorporates a new movie by Daniel Obasi while showcasing their teamwork on September 27th 2018 at Art Twenty One with two fashion collections by Gozel Green and Fruche, with photography by Yagazie Emezi and new music composition by the talented Dj Aye, all of which is founded on extensive research enhancing each other’s creativity merged with the Vlisco world.
