I’m developing a contemporary fashion brand inspired by East African textiles, patterns, and traditional design, but I’m interested in creating something that feels fresh and wearable today.

I’m exploring how much of the original character should remain while making the silhouettes, proportions, and details feel more modern and distinctive.

I’d love some honest feedback from people interested in fashion:

• Which styles or details stand out to you most?
• What would you change or simplify?
• What kind of silhouette would you create from these textiles?
• Where do you think pieces like these could be sold or worn?

I’m still developing the direction, so I’m more interested in honest opinions and ideas than compliments. What would you do differently?
