As Rachel Zoe suggests, ‘style is a way to say who you are without having to speak, communicating identity louder than words ever could’. This is a genuine quote that every fashion enthusiast needs to pay attention to. Many of us think of style when the word fashion is mentioned.
Rachel in her quote tries to differentiate them. While fashion describes something associated with the majority within a particular timeframe, style on the other hand is much more personal. A personal style is unique to an individual. It doesn’t need to fit into a certain Mould or trend.
It is intimate, special, and as Zoe puts it. Styling is much more versatile. Choosing your personal style allows you to express yourself both on the good and bad days.
So, when you’re choosing your next outfit, and wondering whether it is fashionable or not, stop and ask yourself; is this my style? Because most times, we are tempted to choose our style from the individual style of others. Dress for you and wear clothes that speak volumes about who you are. And that’s what Anu Threads aims to achieve with her brand.
Take a cue from model Shalom Harlow as she expressed her unique style to observers, one that is difficult to replicate. In Alexander McQueen’s 1999 spring/summer runway show, model Shalom Harlow stepped onto the stage in what seemed so simple, strapless white dress. But two industrial robots came to life as she stood on a rotating platform. With bursts of black and neon-yellow paint, they sprayed her dress in unpredictable, chaotic strokes, transforming it before the audience’s eyes. What began as a blank canvas ended as a one-of-a-kind piece, unique to that moment- impossible to replicate.
This show wasn’t just about fashion, but a statement about individual style. McQueen demonstrated that personal expression isn’t about fitting into neat, predefined moulds – it’s about embracing spontaneity and imperfection. Just like that dress, true style emerges when we allow ourselves to be bold, take risks, and let the unexpected shape who we are.
At ANÚ Threads, each garment is crafted with precision and given meticulous attention using high-quality fabrics and innovative techniques. The Floral Set 2021 collection is one of beauty and class that is designed to empower individuals, making them feel confident and stylish whether they are attending a special event or going about their daily lives.
The brand believes that fashion is more than just a clothing statement of identity and a form of self-expression, blending traditional Nigerian patterns with contemporary styles, giving it that contemporary outlook.
Ride with us in this collection, as we explore different styles and how they have been uniquely designed to fit anyone who decides to make it their style, communicating who they are.
Anuoluwapo Mutiat Isaka, the founder of ANÚ Threads created inspired ready-to-wear attires that are both quality in material and customer service for the year’s collection.
This stunning outfit exudes elegance and sophistication. From the choice of fabric to the choice of style, blending timeless floral motifs with silhouettes is one unique outfit you should look out for. The floral pattern on the material grabs the attention of admirers.
The silk fabric drips luxury, communicating depths and proper detailing. The collar neck fits the face beautifully. So rather than choose a V-neck, an off-shoulder, or a half-sleeve, the designer thought to create this timeless masterpiece. The collar neckline hugs the neck perfectly, neither too tight nor too loose. This style could be embraced by individuals who want to portray themselves as elegant, classic, or one with high confidence.
The long sleeves are a perfect choice for the outfit so that it can suit both casual and formal events. The defined waistline cinches elegantly. The modern wrapper-style skirt falls in soft folds, and its joint design creates a dynamic movement. This attire will complement various body types, perhaps you are petite in body structure, tall with an hourglass shape, or rectangular, choosing this style will accentuate your body just the way you want it. Also, as the fashion industry evolves, incorporating different innovations, you could decide to combine this style with another, thereby bringing alive a unique kind of design. In other words, discovering what you want to be known for.
For an unforgettable outlook, pair this outfit with heeled shoes, a statement accessory to complement the floral pattern. In other not to overwhelm the design, add minimal jewellery, and you’ll be good to go. While this outfit looks elegantly perfect, it isn’t flexible. This means that the joined design of the skirt could restrict movement, making it challenging to sit or walk comfortably. The wear isn’t versatile when it comes to personality. This could fit someone who has a loud and extroverted personality, but a person with it might not be suiting for a person with a quieter personality.
Again, while this attire is impressive, its restrictive design and limited wearability hinder its overall appeal. With thoughtful creativity, this elegant wear could become a timeless, and versatile choice.
Recommendation: If this looks like a perfect choice for you, feel free to put it on to events like formal galas, red carpet events, or traditional weddings.
This is an absolutely impressive style. From the choice of fabric to the designer’s creative fit, it looks stunning. The fabric is 100% high quality. Of course, the collection doesn’t settle for less, bringing out the best in every material chosen to craft a befitting apparel. The collar complements the button-down shirt, which assures its versatility in how and where you can wear this outfit. The long sleeve hands with the feather cut attached to each of the sleeve’s ankles, is one we call a perfect combination. Coming across this, one would think the feathered part came alongside the fabric. But it was a deliberate addition to make the outlook creative and outstanding. To stand tall and be confident in your skin, pair the cloth with a heel or low shoe, depending on the occasion.
This is a commendable work of art as it has well-aligned patterns with intricate stitching and seams. on the other hand, it has its setbacks.
The hemlines are uneven, and the choice of fabric doesn’t let the trousers stretch. One way to fix this loophole is to refine the hemline technique and incorporate stretchy fabric for comfort, that way, it becomes a perfect choice for everyone. The outfit’s construction quality is commendable, but attention to detail is necessary to elevate it to be an exceptional wear. With proper adjustments, this charming apparel will excel in both style and durability.
Recommendation: This attire is best worn for casual or semi-formal events.
Just as the Fashion icon Coco Chanel once said, ‘Fashion changes, but style endures.’ These outfits in the Floral Set 2021 collection are timeless. They are eternal, as long as it befits your personality. Hence, this does not imply that you have to shun fashion to be stylish, the secret is in the mix, integrating those trendy pieces that suit your personal aesthetics without losing yourself.
