Nigerian /Uk Fashion brand – Afrishwish debuts The Moremi Collection
The Moremi Collection by Nigerian/UK fashion brand Afriswish is a bold tribute to African heritage, feminine strength, and timeless elegance. Inspired by the powerful story of Funmilayo Osobu—a woman who faced life’s trials with dignity and resilience—the collection channels themes of courage, transformation, and cultural pride. More than a fashion line, it is a sartorial homage to African traditions, reimagined for the modern, sophisticated woman.
At its heart, the collection incorporates traditional African textiles such as Aso Oke and Adire. Aso Oke, a prestigious handwoven fabric from the Yoruba people, and Adire, Nigeria’s iconic tie-dye textile, are central to the brand’s commitment to sustainable fashion and the preservation of African craftsmanship.
The color palette reflects regal strength and natural harmony, featuring Royal Gold, Deep Burgundy, Ivory, and Emerald Green—each symbolizing different facets of womanhood and resilience. These hues elevate the visual impact of the collection while maintaining a refined elegance.
Silhouettes range from structured tube dresses and corset gowns to pleated and triangle skirts, seamlessly blending modern tailoring with traditional artistry. The styles are versatile enough for professional, cultural, or social settings, offering pieces that are both statement-making and wearable.
Targeting women aged 25 to 50—particularly those in the UK and US—the collection appeals to fashion-forward professionals and socialites who value authenticity, sustainability, and self-expression. These women seek unique pieces that resonate with their heritage and personal style.
Debuted at Africa Fashion Week London and Liverpool Fashion Week, the Moremi Collection was praised for its fusion of tradition and innovation. Now available for custom orders, it embodies Afriswish’s mission: to bridge African legacy with global fashion sensibilities, offering bespoke elegance rooted in heritage.
