British-Nigerian fashion designer Elizabeth-Yemi Akingbade founded Yemzi in 2013 with a limited edition range of environmentally friendly printed t-shirts. The fashion brand’s first ready-to-wear collection (SS16) was released in 2015, setting the premise for Yemzi's aesthetic. Tired of seeing African designers limited by the same Dutch wax designs, Elizabeth-Yemi creates the artwork for her collections, which are inspired by West African culture. She combines her unique fabrics with Western and traditional silhouettes. At home in East London or on her frequent travels Elizabeth aims to sketch and paint to inform her bold yet intricate designs. Her work is consciously influenced by her English upbringing in the seaside town of Bournemouth with her Caucasian foster family, hybridised with her Nigerian roots and culture. Yemzi has shown in several European cities and has been worn by internationally recognised musicians and influencers. #Yemzi #Yemzigirl @yemzi

Yemzi Fashion Editorial // Kiana @ Linden Staub shot by Asiko, styled by Ruth Fianu
The latest fashion editorial was shot in Dalston, home to our British-Nigerian luxury womenswear brand. For the spring-summer '17 collection fine silks were digitally printed with drawings inspired by Yoruba scarification marks and ancient rock art. The fashion spread, shot by Asiko and styled by Ruth Fianu, captures the story of a young lady from the African diaspora wondering, searching for a way to reconnect with her ancestors from the distant motherland.

這幾年，社會興起了一種速食文化。在急速的步伐節奏下，大家都追求快與新，間接令「速食」的層面漸漸擴大。由起初所指的快餐食品，繼而衍生出與時尚、文化及生活等有關的解釋。這種現象，難道真的不可阻擋嗎？這位尼日利亞的女設計師，卻不願隨波逐流，更表明自己的設計是有別於Fast Fashion！
出生於英國的設計師Elizabeth Akingbade，父母是尼日利亞人，但自小已生活在巴黎、倫敦等地。還記得年紀尚小時，Elizabeth已開始設計服裝，更有著一種創業精神，希望長大後能建立個人品牌。在倫敦藝術大學畢業後，她便二話不說，以行動去實現夢想。
或許你會羨慕這個女人的幹勁爽快，但Elizabeth坦言自己相當「反叛」。自小，她試圖擺脫父母的束縛，更對各種形式的控制產生反感。愈是強迫她，她愈是努力地掙脫出來。這種敢於挑戰的心，正是讓YEMZI成功面世的原因。
標榜著可持續的環保品牌，把非洲及歐洲的藝術融入奢華的街頭造型，正是專屬於YEMZI的時尚定位。在Elizabeth的角度，Fast Fashion雖成本低，產量多，但這種模式只會令時尚界變得單調重複。表面上，大家正在享受這種速食時尚，但持續下去會令服飾設計面對困境。因此，品牌YEMZI標誌自己是「慢時尚」的一份子，更嘗試推廣「貴精不貴多」的趨勢。
在Elizabeth的心裡，「YEMZI女孩」是一群崇尚自由奔放的人，更是自信的代表。為了突顯這群與眾不同的女生，在服飾設計方面，她以大膽獨特的印花圖案，加上剪影效果，以設計出具有空靈感的波西米亞風。為了呈現這種感覺，品牌經常使用絲綢面料、安全染料及有機棉等天然纖維，並同時達致環保的意念。
除了對物料的堅持外，Elizabeth更致力幫助一班有色人種的婦女。過去，這班女性經常被視為「邊緣人」。面對社會的歧視偏見，令她們遭受很多不公平對待。以工作為例，這班女性長期受僱主的剝削，每天工資更可能少於1英鎊。為了給予實質的支持，YEMZI聘請她們為裁縫，將理念付諸實行，希望通過行動讓這群女性有養活自己的力量。
關心女性議題的Elizabeth亦對於現今的時尚界有著這樣的看法：「I see a lot of fashion brands basically selling sex appeal as if they’re aiming to completely objectify women.」為了有完美的宣傳效果，很多品牌都選擇以性感為賣點，她認為這是一個物化女性的表現。真正的時尚，不是把注意力放在女性的身體上，而是衣服的本身。
可能你會認為Elizabeth是杞人憂天，甚至是痴人說夢話，但她所說的確是真實地存在。利用品牌的微小力量，她希望能為世界出一分力，更努力地實現自己的夢。能讓YEMZI存在於世上，已經是Elizabeth作為設計師的最大成就。
