Quite a few African references have been popping up in the last few months, and the latest (when I say "latest" it was 2 months ago, but I'm slow..) being news of ASOS creating their Spring/Summer 2010 collection using
SOKO, a small production unit in Kenya. SOKO aims to create sustainable, fair employment and offer training and skills to some of Kenya's poorest people. Props to ASOS for taking that intiative!
Hearing news of that reminded me of some other great african inspired prints that popped up in spring 2010 and Fall 2010 collections at Bryant Park…
But look who did it a whole year before?
Hmm.. makes me want to burn all the black clothes in my wardrobe.
