Sustainable fashion has emerged as a pivotal concern within the fashion industry, as many brands recognize the urgent need to protect our environment. With pollution levels rising and climate change impacting our planet, the call for eco-friendly practices in fashion has become paramount.
In this context, the Nigerian fashion label Banke Kuku is leading the charge, proving that sustainability can be seamlessly integrated into striking design.
On October 18, in the vibrant city of Lagos, Banke Kuku unveiled its latest collection, a bold statement that resonates with the brand’s commitment to sustainability. The collection, entitled “OCEANS,” draws inspiration from the magnificence of the sea.
