Maison D’Afie - Ngondo Collection Cruise 2019

There is something rather refreshing about a collection that brings a truly personal and unique touch from the designer to life. 

Most collections have a narrative to tell, however a few special gems tell a story beyond design. A collection that paints a picture, tells a story and expresses a state mind, packed with emotion is always one to remember.  

Maison D’Afie has done just that by presented the Ngondo Collection for the Cruise 2019 Collection. Featuring a selection of designs that carry a unique beauty in every way, the designer takes us on a cultural journey from the Sawa region in Cameroon. 

The designer drew inspiration from the Kaba, a colonial era classic style  introduced by missionaries in the 19th century, perfectly complemented by the Sawa culture and  key elements from her rich childhood. 

In our eyes the Ngondo Collection is an amazing gift to women from its choice of colors inspired in green forests and rivers, made to compliment the skin tone and fit all types of body shapes and occasions. 

Personally I am enamored with the collection. From the fit of the pieces, to how refreshingly unique the designs are, and the choice of colors. The designer offered looks that are suitable for various occasions and so rich in character.

See the full collection below and let me know what your favorite look was.
