Design Inspiration 

The Action Lady Collection by Hertunba is a body of art largely inspired by the lifestyle of young working women in Lagos, Nigeria.

“Growing up, I was surrounded with tall, fashionable aunties and I always knew I wanted to dress like them someday. This is part of what inspired the Action Lady Collection.”

For this collection, the creative director utilised the vibrant, yet earthy colours of the city of Lagos and this is evident in the designs. Trendy styles such as ruffles and tiered sleeves were also uniquely utilised in the collection while still retaining the entire mood of the collection.
