Here is your chance to journey from Bolgatanga, Ghana to Eastern Nigeria; with a carefully curated edit of the best of AAKS and Lisa Folawiyo, chosen exclusively for The Place London by Style House Files Founder, Omoyemi Akerele.
The highly coveted Kwenu collection by womenswear designer Lisa Folawiyo as well as handcrafted raffia bags by Ghanaian brand, AAKS will be available at the newest The Place London store at 59 Brook Street in Mayfair from July to September!
The tailored edit has been developed by Omoyemi Akerele with Simon Burstein, who discovered both brands on a trip to Lagos for the ever-growing Lagos Fashion Week and was inspired to expand the offering to reach the discerning The Place London customer.
Simon Burstein commented, “Both Lisa Folawiyo and Akosua Afriyie-Kumi are world travellers, with great personal style and loves of fashion which transcends through their designs. This alchemy, combined with local craftsmanship, results in beautiful and exotic collections.”
AAKS and Lisa Folawiyo will be available as part of the Lagos Fashion Week pop up from July and are available to buy in store at The Place London store as well as online at www.theplacelondon.co.uk.
