For the first edition of KENZO Folio, Gidi gidi bu ugwu eze (‘Unity is strength’), artists Ruth Ossai, Akinola Davies Jr and Ib Kamara showcase the Summer 2017 collection in the midst of various celebrations and ceremonies within the Igbo communities of Nigeria.

The festivities center around a beauty pageant in which the young women of Nsukka support one another to develop a stage for shining a light on their own approach to beauty and glamour.

Capturing the Nigerian community shows a commitment to redefining and celebrating culture, showing the textures of a community in celebration of itself. Family nurtures everything and your community is one’s extended family. Utilising one another and trusting in each other’s process.
