This editorial is yet another example of cultural appropriation. Good design doesn't need thrills and gimmicks. While I am pleased with the rise of African designers and the use of ethnic fabrics, the clothing needs no embellishment. This attempt to create authenticity is disingenuous. Do the research and do it right, or don't do it at all.
