March\u00e9 Noir opens the doors of its temple to African fashion against an imperial and colonial backdrop.<\/p>\n

The concept <\/strong><\/p>\n

Developed by Amah Ayivi, March\u00e9 Noir offers visitors a tour of the African continent. As if borrowed from African royalty, the d\u00e9cor plunges newcomers into an exotic universe marked by the continent’s history. Warmly welcomed by lush vegetation, visitors discover a two-storey boutique featuring a knick-knack area, a tea room and, in the near future, a section devoted to women’s and men’s wardrobe basics. The space is overflowing with decorative and clothing treasures unearthed here and there on African markets. <\/p>\n

African fashion, a visible trend<\/strong><\/p>\n

Glued braids, Bantu hairstyles, wax fabric: African fashion continues to spread through the various fashion sectors. The mix of shapes and colors brings a touch of cheerfulness and originality. However, Amah Ayivi has distanced herself from this waxmania to unveil pieces from all over Africa and even Asia. Caftan, Boubou and kimono share the spotlight. <\/p>\n
