Banana Evening Dress

2018 | Marker on Paper

Zako's Couture Collection features fantastical designs and outrageous concepts; the imaginative stories behind his fashion-forward illustrations, bring these images to life: "Bananas are a staple in African food, especially in East Africa. What could be more banal than to make a Haute Couture dress for social events from these everyday commodities. The handbag also represents three big bananas: free women, financial independence, and resilience."
