Design duo, Ife’s Closet has just released their new S/S’17 collection. The ‘My Heart Skipped A Beat In Cuba’ collection is a 20-piece assortment of high fashion and high energy ready to wear pieces through a burst of colourful and rich vintage prints perfect for this fashion season and spring/summer styles.
Designed by sisters Titi and Tinuke Ukrinamemen, the UK based designers’ third collection was created and inspired after their first trip and experience to the timeless capital of Havana, Cuba.
Cuba was a breathtaking experience of culture, colour and style that unexpectedly inspired our latest collection. Experiencing and watching the dancers in the taverns of the historic town of Trinidad, women dressed in Bata Cabañas and gélés in the squares of Habana Vieja to men in traditional Guayabera, smoking tobacco whilst playing checkers on the bay of Cienfuegos. The more we walked the streets of Cuba making memories of each cobble and skirmish of rust and colour, it was with each moment that the collection sprang to life. My Heart Skipped A Beat In Cuba is a clash of twists and turns; it’s feminine and vibrant, mixed with old favourites with new dimensions. Tinuke Ukrinamemen.
