To Blend, Together, Amsterdam Fashion Week, September 4, 2021
Bodil Ouédraogo returns with a live presentation at Amsterdam Fashion Week and a capsule collection in collaboration with Patta. The work connects themes such as Afro Modernism, West African couture and African diaspora streetwear from a Bodil’s own context. The collaboration is a print based on bundling the wealth around the Bazin Rich fabric by manipulating and enlarging the fabric. A representation of the culture surrounding wearing the amount of luxury of the grand Boubou.
