"Everything from the intricate mix of art and functionality to P.O.C deliberately opting for a campaign shoot, instead of a look book, featuring the original P.O.C man, Omisore, instead of professional models, is to show the everyday Nigerian man how he too can wear P.O.C on a daily basis" the brand's creative director Papa Omisore revealed why he was his own muse.

The pieces are functional, modern, refreshing, unconventional and definitely out there for the modern stylish muse.
