By using cutting-edge technology and showcasing 3D-printed pieces throughout the collection, Elpis Megalio defies convention.
One of the standout pieces is a beautifully crafted corset that was printed using 3D technology, adding a modern twist to the traditional design.
The designer’s profound appreciation of classical music and its ability to convey emotion without using words served as the inspiration for “My Nigerian Symphony.”
The collection is a visual representation of the designer’s life story and close relationship with Nigeria, drawing inspiration from the expressiveness and flow of symphonies.
“I wanted a collection with a symphony of colors that allowed the audience to see my love for my country, Nigeria, and the opportunities and lessons it has given me,” stated Olufunke Afolabi, the creative designer behind Elpis Megalio.
