TASOU collection is an interesting amalgamation of sleek lines from New York City, and geometric shapes and vibrant colors from Nigeria representing the diverse background of the designer Collins.
As a designer, he takes inspiration from his country’s experiences, events and childhood memories. He is a conscious artist who wants to turn towards sustainability. He wants to raise the human understanding and experience level about the planet. TASOU is a fashion brand that incorporates dynamic fluidity of life with the revolving, athletic nature of human beings and their ever-changing humanity. Through TASOU, he aims to give a second life to used textile fibers instead of sending them into landfills. All the materials used have been sustainably sourced and produced from recycled materials to provide fashion that’s good for the planet and its living beings.
Collins further explains the concept of the new brand and the fashion collection as it fulfills the gap between streetwear and athletic wear imparting the essence of the lost Benin Kingdom of South Nigeria and the beautiful streets of New York City. The British designer attributes his success to the strong women who pushed him to own his craft. He dedicated himself to giving back to the planet and empowering women through art as an extension.
