Emmy Kasbit Opens Lagos Fashion Week 2025
When the lights came up on the Lagos Fashion Week runway, it wasn’t just showtime; it was a statement. And who better to set the tone for the 15th anniversary than Emmy Kasbit, the label entrusted with the honour of opening this landmark season. The symbolism was striking; a brand born from this very platform returning to command its spotlight. It felt less like an opening act and more like destiny; perfectly in sync with the brand’s chosen theme, REBIRTH.

Inspired by the story of King Jaja of Opobo, the collection drew from a legacy of courage and reinvention. The brand’s show notes read, “At the heart of ‘REBIRTH’ is a continued commitment to artisanal excellence.” Locally sourced, handwoven Akwete textiles crafted in collaboration with women artisans formed the backbone of the collection, marrying sculptural tailoring with regal draping. The result was a visual dialogue between heritage and futurism, tradition and bold new identity.

Emmy Kasbit’s evolution was clear. Moving beyond the familiar aso-oke of past seasons, the brand embraced texture, structure, and silhouette with new confidence. Every look carried intention; precise, elevated, and unapologetically refined. The introduction of accessories marked a quiet but defining shift, suggesting a label expanding its world and refining its codes.

This was not a debut, nor a reinvention. It was a coronation. With REBIRTH, Emmy Kasbit stepped beyond being a participant in the fashion landscape to become a custodian of its legacy. The message was unmistakable: a new dawn, a new land, a new beginning. In this moment, Emmy Kasbit didn’t just return, it arrived; ready to reign.
