The African-American culture in the United States is a wide and
varied one, with men and women from many different walks of life and many
different heritages coming together under a single umbrella.
In many ways, the culture of Nigeria is a mirror image of that
African-American culture. Many African Americans can trace their heritage
directly to this rich and vibrant country, but even those who cannot are able
to appreciate its ethnic diversity and rich history.
One of the things that is most loved about the Nigerian culture is
its focus on fashion, and many African-Americans are embracing Nigerian fashion.
Those Nigerian-inspired fashions are a great way for African-Americans to show
off their taste and style while giving a nod to their cultural heritage.
Fashion has a unique ability to bring an entire culture
together, and nowhere is that more evident than in the clothing designs of
Nigeria.
Raquel Newell’s clothing below is proof of the cross-cultural
power of fashion. Whether it stems from a desire to reconnect with a lost
culture or just their fashion sense, there is a reason so many African-Americans
are embracing Nigerian culture and fashion in all its forms.
