Styledbyzk’s ‘All Along’ Reworks Aso-Oke, Raffia and Reclaimed Materials for London Fashion Week
Lagos-based label Styledbyzk presented its latest collection, “All Along”, at London Fashion Week through Fashion Scout. Designer Zainab Kolawole brings together handwoven aso-oke, deadstock velvet, raffia and repurposed materials such as cotton wool to explore upcycling and Nigerian craftsmanship. The collection includes velvet dresses with playful embroidery, aso-oke designs paired with raffia fringe, and relaxed sets with wool detailing. Its mix of familiar fabrics and unexpected materials gives the pieces texture and personality. The collection’s focus on fringe creates a clear visual thread, though more variation in embellishment or colour could have made some looks stand out further. Overall, “All Along” shows how existing materials can be reworked into contemporary fashion.
