Fashion designer Ngwi Njikta is gradually showing the world what her designing creativity can do. The Founder of F&F Afro Fashion House, a young and growing brand proudly represented Cameroon and the African culture as a whole as it made its first ever debut on the runway of the African Fashion Week Nigeria 2018 show where she showcased her beautiful collection.
The theme of this collection is called “RECOLLECT“. The collection which is a blend of two cultures; Cameroonian culture represented by the Toghu embroideries and the contemporary Afro Culture is made up of 6 inspired outfits hand crafted and tailor made to suit any clientele all over the world with Ultimate by DaViva being the main choice of African fabric used.
When asked what inspired this collection, the FashionPrenuer said “My prime inspiration comes from God Almighty, the 1920’s female jumpsuits, the dresses worn by black female cooks (Chefs) during the trans-Sahara slave trade in the movie ROOTS and lastly from my nursery school uniforms back in the 80’s.“

Their men’s collection as seen above with the Toghu embroidery introduces the first ever “culture in casual” hand crafted embroideries cap called the F&F Toghu Cap which now blends very well with their existing Toghu T-shirts. Given that this was the first time the young fashion brand has ever been involved or participated on a runway, we think Ngwi nailed it. All six designs are available now in various sizes and can be mailed anywhere.
F&F Afro Fashion House will be organizing a pop up shop in February 2019 where they will use this collection as a theme for their second edition of the Young Women Entrepreneurs Conference, where their focus will be to inspire physically challenged women and young girls in entrepreneurship. Now talk about the use of brands for good causes!
