Suit Yourself..

I honestly love A.Sauvage, he's some sort of an African fashion genius,I love how he mashed up the traditional Kente with a European twist with such a fine Finish......Behold


“I hadn’t been to Ghana in eleven years so this collection is a reflection of me going back to my heritage and doing something with integrity,” says the London-born designer. “I also wanted to show my friends and family what I’m up to and get them involved by modelling the clothes.”
Adrien Sauvage has channelled his Ghanaian roots into his latest spring summer 2011menswear collection Black Volta. He worked with a kente weaver to come up with his own take on the indigenous woven fabric in muted monochromes, which now furnishes ties and his key look, a double-breasted silk tuxedo with peak lapels and jetted pockets, with an authentic, contemporary spirit. The range of A. Sauvage suits come in a red, white and black colour palette (taken from the colours of the Black Volta river flag), which allows for easy mix and match styling.
I guess this means the up-to-fashion man of today should...suit up... 
Sauvage is currently working on a womenswear line of deconstructed suiting, making a short film called Costumier and will open a London flagship store just off Bond Street in September.
