‘Needle Point’ showcased its Travel Collection also known as the “Cruise Collection 2014”. At the Africa Fashion Week London, an annual fashion week held in London to showcase established and emerged African designers in the fashion industry.
On the 8th of August 2014, Nigerian Designer brand ‘Needlepoint’ closed the show at the Africa Fashion Week London (AFWL), which took place at the Olympia Kensington in London.
This collection is said to be one of Needle Points most stylish with
emphasis placed on the comfort and the versatility of each piece. The
collection fuses Linen and Ankara fabrics, accentuated with the ‘Needle Point’ signature embellishment to create a collection designed to be in every woman’s closet.
‘Needle Point’ is a fashion brand created by Theresa Onwuka. Theresa holds a BSc. Banking & Finance degree from the University of Port Harcourt Nigeria,
and an MBA from Brunel University London. Her mother, who had herself,
attended the London School of Fashion in the 1980s, inspired her foray
into the fashion industry. Immersed from a young age into a world
suffused in creativity, shape and colors, Theresa was exposed to the rudiments of detailing, design and embellishment.
Articulating all these influences into harmonious style and form therefore found passionate expression in the ‘Needle Point’ brand.
The brand began in 2006 but re-launched in 2010. Since then, ‘Needle
Point’ has unveiled several collections such as the Fusion Collection
(2012), Amina Collection (A/W 2013) and The Butterflies & Bees (S/S
2014). Since its re-launch, the brand has enjoyed features in various
fashion publications. In 2013, Needlepoint was selected to show at ARISE Magazine Fashion Week, Lagos Fashion & Design Week, and Ebony Life TV Runway Series and now Africa Fashion Week London
The brand’s DNA has identified the ‘Needle Point’ woman as a woman
who is confident, loves her classic pieces and remains stylishly
elegant. These unique features are evident in every piece that Theresa
Onwuka creates.
