This collection was inspired "by a striking young lady in red that struck an unforgettable impression on the brand's designer and creative director at a cocktail party. Aptly called Rouge, the collection marries the designer's long time love for red, her memories of sunsets and bun fires experienced on her many trips to Seychelles, the Caribbean, and the inspiring awe that was provoked by the girl in red to create a collection solely anchored on red - her favorite colour" the brand revealed in a note accompanying the collection.

"Intricate beading - using pearls, crystal beads - and embroideries carefully and generously hand stitched on luxurious fabrics, such as; silks, Crepe De Chine and Duchess Satin with accents of oriental influences inspired by some of the designers Eastern travels all come together to create an un-apologetically feminine collection for the contemporary woman who's not afraid of provoking a sartorial statement while looking and feeling her best" creative director of the eponymous brand Aisha Abubakar reveals details about the collection.
