“Notes on Image Architecture”

A study of how identity is visually constructed and perceived, this editorial uses fashion as a framework to examine the architecture of self. This editorial blends theoretical exploration with visual poetry, where each look is deliberately structured to mimic how we “build” ourselves through style. The styling draws inspiration from traditional Nigerian cultural garments—integrating rich textures, layered silhouettes, and symbolic elements that honor heritage while recontextualizing it within a contemporary, global fashion narrative.
