Fashion || ESSENCE Magazine does African Luxe: MAASAI


Fashion || ESSENCE Magazine does African Luxe: MAASAI

For their April 2010 issue, Essence magazine premieres a spread titled
"MIX MASTER: Africa's Maasai influences collide in a melange of exuberant hues, Silhouettes, and textures."

Beautifully done. African influenced style taking a stronghold on runways and collections
in high-fashion is what provides me with some enthusiasm; not the African prints.
Why? African prints/fabric is nothing new, but the idea of giving credit to cultural groups within Africa is VERY exciting.
Maasai accessories have made a greater impact on Spring accessories within the past three years.
Check out Pages 128-129 of the issue to get a full scope of how to integrate global fashion into
your wardrobe, and how to get the looks from featured in this blog for less.
