</div></blockquote></div><p> Designer <strong>Adebayo Oke-Lawal</strong> of <strong>Orange Culture</strong> presented "Rain and Tear Drops," which showcased a variety of styles, cuts and hues of orange, black and brown. The brand has become more of a movement of fluid style and androgyny than a clothing brand. At the Day 2 presentation, we saw exactly how Adebayo artistically expresses these concepts by mixing hard and soft prints together which illustrates the fluidity in sexuality,especially, in menswear. </p><h3>IAMISIGO</h3><div id="7950f" class="rm-shortcode" data-rm-shortcode-id="91YHGO1522171328"><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-captioned="" data-instgrm-version="4" style=" background:#FFF; border:0;
