I feel like I'm in a Solange inspired Victorian music video, loving Yinka Shonibare's vision. Mixing Victorian cuts with fabrics associated with Afrrica. Did you know that almost all traditional African patterns were actually made in a Holland and England and then exported to Africa? Shonibare exploits the misunderstanding and suggestions of the establishment of power through victorian costumes. #victorianera #museum #nightatthemuseum #kentecloth #tribalgarb #solange #inspiration #thenortonmuseum #africana #nigeria #african #shonibare #fashiondesigners #teamnatural #naturalgair #familyaffairdress #protectivestyle #boxbraids #yinkashonibare #yara #textile #africantextile #fashionhistory #history #nubian #blackhistory #igdaily #potd by dame
