After a 12-year hiatus, British-Ghanaian designer Ozwald Boateng returned to London Fashion Week with a live show last night.
“I wanted to celebrate the contribution of Black British culture in this country,” he said in a preview ahead of the presentation. Bringing together the worlds of fashion, music, and art into one grand spectacle—including actors Idris Elba and Nicholas Pinnock, and musicians Goldie, Dizzee Rascal, Pa Salieu, and Kojey Radical—it was a star-studded affair that celebrated Black excellence.
From expertly-cut silk two-piece suits adorned with the spiritual Adinkra symbol patterns, to weighty velvet separates in the form of evening jackets and wide-leg pants, the collection—which comprised over 100 looks—bore instantly recognizable Ozwald Boateng signatures with twists thrown into the mix . This time, the designer wanted to showcase his ability to create gender-fluid clothing, something that he’s continuously championed.
