Nelly Uchendu - Love Nwantinti (1977) Referred to as the “Golden Voice of Nigeria,” Nelly Uchendu was one of the few female singers in the Igbo high life genre.

Nelly burst upon the scene in 1977 with “Love Nwantinti,” a song based on the folklore of her native Enugu, and quickly followed that up with a number of hits like “Aka Bu Eze” and “Mamausa.”

This was a project for my final assignment, for my “Fashion, Illustration, & Performance” class at Parsons.. which could potentially become the start of my thesis for this year. The design process of these garments all started with two collages that I created with patterns that I made, then I decided to bring them to life by creating them into garments and wearing them myself.
