Jewel By Lisa first unveiled her “Vinatge Love” collection during ARISE Made in Africa show at the New York Fashion Week.

With the emergence of great novelists Chinua Achebe and Wole Soyinka and the development of musical genres high-life and afro-beat with the masters Victor Uwaifo and Fela Kuti danced and swayed to at soirees; a time when modern architectural influences paved new streets
