A Dinner For Duro Olowu

Iman and Designer Duro Olowu

The star of London-based, Nigerian born designer Duro Olowu is rising - fast! He is said to be an instant favorite of Anna Wintour! And this week Duro was honored with a dinner party for his birthday by Sally Singer of Vogue. Iman, his wife and curator Thelma Golden and others were in attendance.

If you are unfamiliar with Duro's work he is best known for his adventurous use of prints! His pieces make a statement on its own yet very, very wearable. So in honor of Duro's birthday, enjoy the slide show of my favorite pieces from his Spring/Summer 2009 Collection.
