On the collaboration, Tolu Coker shared: “Topshop was my first job when I was 16, so this collaboration is personal, but it’s also a statement of intent. […] The collection is built to live beyond a season: transeasonal, versatile, and made with longevity in mind. I believe the positive future of our industry lies in collaboration. It takes bravery to interrogate what ‘accessible’ can mean and to take real steps to evolve it. We don’t have all the answers, but this is a step in the right direction, and a foundation we can build upon.”

As always, Coker’s work is a platform for her creative community of long-time collaborators. The collection is captured in a campaign film was directed by her brother Ade Coker, while the photography was captured by Rashidi Noah.

The capsule is now available on Topshop’s online store from today, March 2nd.
