Zebra Living presents The Dikko Chronicles & Mara Homes

You are cordially invited to join us as Zebra Living presents The Dikko Chronicles & Mara Home

This retrospective capsule collection of classic vintage Zebra dress staples we all know and love comes to life in iconic bold African wax prints, colourful vintage laces and retro painterly textures. In a kaleidoscopic explosion of colour and prints, The Dikko Chronicles is a visual representation of the Zebra brand origin and ethos - timeless, funky, happy and African.

A vibrant installation of Zebra's new Mara Home collection shall also be exhibited. For half a decade, Zebra's creative director, Ugoma Adegoke, has recycled fabrics and notions from her fashion projects to create rustic, collectible accent furniture pieces that now have morphed into an identity of their own attracting a cult following of art-loving, design-conscious and functional decorators and buyers. 

This will be the first public showcase of Zebra's Home Collection.

The Dikko Chronicles and Mara Home Exhibition by Zebra Living takes place at White Space, 58 Raymond Njoku Street, Off Awolowo Road, SW Ikoyi.

On Saturday 24th and Sunday 25th November 2012

From 12pm to 7pm each day.
