“Out with the old, in with the new” is contestant KBaw’s message to the fashion world.
For his final task in the season 2 of the Adepam fashion competition, KBaw pieced together an Avant Garde booth gown to tell the story of how the world has evolved into an advanced realm.
His Kente gown had a large booth to it’s rear to signify how the phonebooth and photo studios are gradually becoming a thing of the past, kind courtesy technology.
The judges were intrigued by his creativity and innovation, but were struggling to note how his elaborate concept would be feasible in the real world.
