Toju Foyeh and HVS, fashion brands owned by young designers, Toluwaloju Olowofoyeku and Bukola Are respectively, would be unveiling their Spring/Summer 2012 collection at the New York Fashion Week on September 16, 7 pm at 320 Studio. Toju Foyeh will show her signature bold, sexy and elegant cocktail and evening dresses created with lace, silk, chiffon and enduring damask.  The collection offers classic yet trendy romantic dresses that allow for easy fittings and flattering cuts for the ideal cocktail dress, or evening gowns that look and feel luxurious.

Commented Foyeh, “the inspiration for this collection is truly from the core of who I am, and I [can] only imagine launching it in one of the Worlds fashion capitals, New York city. I can absolutely picture my collection on any woman who truly appreciates fashion and its classic glamour.”
