African style rules

African designs and textiles inspire fashion designers around the globe.

Japanese designer
 Junya Watanabe was strongly inspired by African draping and motifs for his Spring 2009 collection. The models carried flowers or actual wheat on their head, which is reminiscent of African women's traditional way of transporting food and goods. The colourful fabrics and traditional motifs were also inspired by African designs.
