Just as the International Women’s Day kicks off, fashion brand Adey Soile has released pictures of her new collection and campaign for this year’s #BalanceforBetter themed International Women’s Day.

The fashion brand brought together Nigerian Women making a difference in their industry to represent the whole. Their creative director Tinuade Soile expressed what inspired this year’s ‘More than Bloom’ campaign.

According to her:

“The woman today knows she’s like an oak tree not just a mere flower. She knows her strength is not for her alone.

“She is not afraid to share. She is not afraid to empower. She is more than a bloom. She’s hope for orchards to come.”

Check out the More than Bloom campaign video and pictures below:

According to the brand:

“As a brand, Adéy Soile prides itself on supporting and striving to empower women to be the best versions of themselves and achieve all they can through our timeless pieces and our message.

Every year we run a campaign in partnership with respected women breaking grounds in their varying fields of work to honour women all over during International Women’s Day. This year we are working with an amazing group of super women who are breaking boundaries for the next generation; Funke Bucknor-Obruthe, Kemi ‘Lala’ Akindoju, Vimbai Mutinhiri, Elizabeth Oputa, Latasha Ngwube, Temilade Aduroja,Yagazie Eguare and of course our creative director Tinuade Soile.

The brand continued:

Our theme for this year is “More Than a Bloom” which means that we are more than just a pretty rose/flower, we are strong with deep roots able to lift up others. This campaign depicts these women in their everyday working environment.

The collection used during this campaign produced by Adey Soile will be sold throughout the Month of March and 40% of the proceeds of sale will be donated to WARIF (Women At Risk International Foundation) a charity that supports the rehabilitation of young women who have suffered s****l and physical abuse.”
