Designer You Should Know: LuxuryByFeyi by Feyisola Adeyemi
Today, I want to introduce you to LuxuryByFeyi, a high-end couture fashion brand based in London, England.
The brand presented their Spring/Summer 2019 collection titled the “Black Swan”, during London Fashion Week. Their most recent foray was dominated by black dresses: think multifaceted flared ball gowns, off the shoulder ruffled floor length frocks with silver acrylic mirror diamante, fringed cocktails dresses, and mini lacy numbers with rose flower and red grape accoutrements.
LuxuryByFeyi’s presentation closed the show with an Afro-beat sound track finale, chromatic luminance, and a branded light projection. Ethnic diversity was applied to model selection as each model graced the catwalk with authoritarian elegance.
CEO / Creative Director Feyisola Adeyemi says, “As a surrealist fashion designer, the idea behind the collection was to capture the natural beauty of animals and translate it into an elegant and surreal artistic feminine silhouette. Most of the garments showcased were animal shape embroidered handmade but still they all maintained a signature paisley pattern throughout. The gowns express a universal themes that resonate with many ethnic groups and am proud to present it in London during London Fashion Week, particularly working with Aston Martin Motors to bring the luxury aspect of the collection into light.”
With select sheer feathered dresses giving a playful, youthful chic vibe, it was a collection that wasn’t afraid to experiment with all different kind of styles and elements. The collection uplifted little black dresses with gemstones, pearls, black roses flower, artificial red grape fruit, acrylic mirrors, feathers, fringe accessories all on satin lace, tulle and sheer fabric.
Adeyemi adds, “LuxuryByFeyi is not just a fashion brand but a voice to the women and younger female generation, particularly from the African decent (not to limit themselves) that black female designers can also be heard globally in the luxury fashion industry.”
