Nigerian Label Tzar's Black & White Menswear
Nigerian label Tzar released their A/ W 14 collection 'Triumvirate of Vagrants,' designed by Ian Audifferen.
Nigerian label Tzar unveils their A/W 14 collection Triumvirate of Vagrants. The brand explains that their latest work is "birthed from a story of the lives of three misunderstood vagrants on a never-ending journey into an abyss of complacency. Black and off white are the defining hues. Off white wool with herringbone stripes tell of a continuous wandering habit superimposed with unpretentious sheer voil. Black matted wool opens a dark cauldron of unsurety juxtaposed with organza. Each metal ring represents a triumvir of quirk, foible and vigor." You can really see the detail and work put into each of the pieces. Tzar's founder and designer Ian Audifferen knows how to create unique menswear garments that are bold and wearable.
