Vogue Italia Honors Naija: A New Generation of Nigerian Creatives

Vogue Italia Honors Naija: A New Generation of Nigerian Creatives

Naija is an African term to describe the new generation in Nigeria, the pride of the nation. Across the world — AND FOR GOOD REASON — young people are on the move in America, too. And most agree that not since 1968, have we seen this degree of activism.

It’s time to put Africa on the fashion map once and for all. The creative energy coming out of Lagos is now full throttle and must be given respect. This Vogue Italia editorial Naija: spring summer 2020 of Nigerian talents is superb.

The editorial was shot by Spanish photographer Eva Losada during GTBank Fashion Weekend and features all Nigerian fashion from spring 2020 collections. Moses Ebite styles models Gilchrist Emeremgini and Olaniyan Olamijuwon. Brands include Viviers studio; Three as Four, NKWO and more.

See Vogue Italia for more commentary and full credits and a lot more backstory.
