“I don’t think anyone has ever done this before!” So Tokyo James said, “He made a call after a tornado fashion month to touch the base on his collapse 2025 collection, which he presented on March 3 with a show in Lagos, Nigeria on Milan Fashion Week schedule.”
You read that right. James, who was born in London and raised, but belonged to the Nigerian dynasty, took his show to Lagos to celebrate the 10th anniversary of his name label. The camera Nazinel Dela Moda Italiana allowed him to have his time slot, but presented his show through Livestream from Nigeria. “I am very grateful that they understood how important it was to us,” James said. While the arrival of social media has encouraged fashion to think global, epidemics inspired many independent designers such as James to think locally. This is a concrete matter to do both.
The 10th anniversary did not send James on an apathy journey for his credit. Rather, he said, it gave him more confidence to keep walking. He said, “I always had an impostor syndrome in the industry, but being able to continue it for 10 years and my path in doing this has been exciting for me,” he said. Newfound stability encouraged James to pay attention to his customers what his customers have to do – Teloring, Leather, Outerwear – and find out the new area. “Tokyo James is entering his story to the princess era,” the designer jokingly said, underlining the broad range of clothes that she is designed to fall. Standout is a sheer, lacesey black frock with sequins and floral applications, sexy and romantic at the same time.
James said that he is hugging the recently discovered love in black. “Black is bus … forever, eternal“He said. His generally the texture and his generous combinations of materials were certainly felt sophisticated in the monochromatic black, and leather work, especially Mainswear Telling added a edge that contained the romance of his clothes.” Making more clothes than any other hue.
Looking at the future, James said that he and his team are constructing the headquarters of the brand in Lagos, and investigating the show in London, “because the London is the house,” or, possibly, in Paris, in Paris, “because Paris is Paris!, Designers like James are at a time locally in touch with a city and are giving “global” a complete new definition.
