Fast fashion these days is dominated by American and British brands. Mostly because they have a huge market to cater to and their marketing budgets are huge. 

In this wave, countries like Nigeria have to strive hard to put their fashion brands on the map. Therefore, we have decided to talk about 5 Nigerian brands that will make your wardrobe fly. 

Fruchè

Fruchè is a brand that talks about fusion fashion. Fusion fashion is a mix of traditional clothing with western or more modern clothing. 

For example, shirts with traditional embellishments and dresses with hints of ethnicity. The inclusion of Fruchè in your closet will make it more diverse. 

You can wear these pieces at events where you are looking to make a statement. 

Onalaja 

Onalaja is a Nigerian womenswear brand that you need to have in your closet, even if it’s just one piece. The brand tried to experiment with textiles as well as textures. They do not shy away from clashes in textures. 

The dresses from Onalaja will brighten up your closet. You can dawn these pieces at any party and your friends will definitely ask you for the brand that you’re wearing. 

Orange Culture 

Orange Culture is another brand focusing on African culture and its roots. They make pieces that have hints of classical African silhouettes. Although they cannot be worn everywhere (unless you can pull them off) you can have a few pieces from their collection to make your wardrobe more diverse. 

In this era, the millennials and Gen Z are focusing more on ethnic and millennial fashion. Orange culture is exactly an adaptation of that. You can add your favorite accessories to add some layers to your look and you’ll be ready to rock a party with any piece of the Orange Culture. 

Kettle Gentleman 

Finally something for our male reader. But ladies do not get disappointed as the makers of kettle gentlemen claim that their pieces are unisex and can be worn by anyone that can pull them off (yes that is necessary). The suits from Kettle Gentleman are cut and sewed with extreme precision. Although you can get suits from anywhere, kettle gentlemen are a must-have in your closet because they offer an edgy style that you can wear at parties yet maintain a sophisticated look. 

Mazelle Studio

Mazelle Studio will add a colorful look to your wardrobe as their unique silhouettes are made on dyed cloth. The brand has a western touch because the founder Mariam Afolabi is a graduate of the Istituto Marangoni fashion school in Milan. The dresses have a staple style that features flared sleeves. There are many statement pieces available in the recent collection. So, if you are looking for dresses that will make you stand out in the crowd. On top of this, the dresses are made with a lot of shimmer and design but you will feel very light because of the cloth that Mazzella Studio uses in their clothes. 

Takeaway

Although a lot of fast fashion these days is based on American brands like HM most of their collection is redundant. On top of this, these brands have monopolized the industry. 

Therefore, to add some fire to your closet, you should look at other places like the orange culture that innovate a lot but still stick to their roots. The designs feature hints of South African fashion and the clothes are easy to adorn. 

These brands will make sure that they make your wardrobe fly. So, you get to have the best time at your next house party.
