Nigerian Fashion Label BigBen's 'Dapper Men' S/S 14

Since we recently celebrated African male model beauty with our Top 10 list, it seems like the right time to talk about menswear designers. The concept of a 'dapper man' has been floating around for ages. Nigerian fashion designer Kilani Ebenezer, the creative director of label BigBen, recently used the concept as the launching point f0r his Spring/Summer 14 collection. The pieces fully deliver and go hand-in-hand with their Dapper Men appellation. Big Ben's well-fitted blazers, floral prints, oversized bow ties, bright pocket squares, and assorted socks showcase a great menswear philosophy of design, craftsmanship and attention to detail, allied with exquisite tailoring. The result is a combination of stunning garments and silhouettes. Tweet #pretapoundo to talk about it.
