It's all about the off the shoulder dress

Another sunny day means that another one of my African designs  can make its debut. I love the structure and simplicity of this off the shoulder dress which was made to measure in Nigeria last year. The length isn’t one I’d normally go for, but because it's so fitted to my shape, I get a flattering enough waistline to allow my legs to  be slightly swallowed up. Since I cut off all my hair last year, I find myself gravitating to a lot more ‘off the shoulder’ styles. There’s something liberating about my my neck and head being free of fabric and hair. The funny thing is I wouldn’t have dreamed about revealing (let alone highlighting) this year ago. I guess the more comfortable you become with the natural version of yourself, the more confident you are.
