Duro’s garments are far more than just a distinct patchwork mix (imagine the coming together of bits from all your favorite garments) colorful prints (usually rare vintage textile). There is an innate knack for pattern cutting, fashion history and a real understanding of proportion.
His woman is self clever (what else would you call her ability to put the unexpected together to create that which is always effortlessly glamorous?), cultured, optimistic and self assured.
I want to be her. Wearing look 11 from his fall 2012 collection be exact. The prints of the trousers and coat have really nothing to do with each (other than a similar color palette) but the Duro girl would not care because her clever eye will no doubt see that they work.
A Duro Olowu piece is special. Each feels like a design from your Grandma’s trunk that has traveled through time, magically staying relevant during every era and referencing so many cultural points.
Stay inspired.
