The designer for Orange Culture is "Adebayo Oke-Lawal", who is also the founder and creative director. The brand aims to challenge traditional notions and gendered fashion through highly crafted, androgynous, colorful designs.
The highly anticipated collection "in the shadows” was filled with story, emotion, upliftment and community. Each piece was crafted with excellence and purpose. From bold earth tone color pallets including reds, blacks, white, greens, browns, bold exaggerated shoulders, a range of constructed and loose fitted silks, wools, the glistering lights reflecting from sequin tops referencing the light of hope during ones silent struggle.
