Orange Culture is a gender-neutral Nigerian designer clothing label for men and women, founded in Lagos in 2011 by Adebayo Oke-Lawal. Oke-Lawal grew up with a passion for confronting societal norms and uses fashion to combat hyper-masculinity, injustice and suppressed expressions of Africanism, describing the brand as a movement of socially aware stories cut into clothing. The label makes trousers, tops, shirts, dresses, skirts, jackets, blazers, coats, shorts, jumpsuits, capes, suits and its signature Skouzers, plus bags such as the Horizon Bag, belts and shoes. Everything is made in Nigeria, in materials such as cotton, linen, silk and viscose. Orange Culture blends Nigerian-inspired print fabrics, colour and other African references with universal streetwear silhouettes and unexpected fabric choices. Its menswear and womenswear collections blur boundaries of culture and gender, interrogating the cues that masculine dress sends to society, with clothes designed to be worn by anyone. Orange Culture was a semi-finalist for the LVMH Prize in 2014 and was named one of Fashion Scout's Ones to Watch for London Fashion Week in 2017.
