Emerging Nigerian designer to watch, Wekafore, has released a short film highlighting looks from his brand's 2017/2018 collection.

God Is A Black Woman, directed by Costa Rican filmmaker Adriana Ramirez, is an ode to Wekafore's grandmother who lived during Nigeria's golden era of the 60s and 70s.

"When she was young and beautiful' he says in a statement, "she showed me the greatest love that anyone could have, she gave me my mother, she gave me life."

Wekafore honors, worships and immortalizes his grandmother in God is a Black Woman. You'll hear his thoughts in Yoruba layer the visuals, challenging the preconceived notion of God being a man.

"I feel more comfortable with the idea of God being a Woman," he continues. "A woman that gave birth to the world, and loved the world so much that she gave us her only son? How sexist and stupid it is for us to think that a man would do that ?'

As Wekafore continues to recreate Nigeria's golden moments, he taps into 1970s Nigeria, channeling the vibe and lifestyle of afro-rock, funk and disco culture—the raw passion and expression that his native country thrived in briefly—with little to no American or British influences. This inspiration is still needed, as he seeks to change the perspective of the future of African culture to Africans and to the world.
