Imagine a dress that would work for virtually any occasion. Prom night? Check. New Year's Eve? A-ha. A date? Yep. Zoom party with friends? Sure.

Sounds too good to be true, but Nigerian fashion designer Oyinda Akinfenwa has made it possible with her smart multifunctional dresses. Oyinda’s dresses can be worn in many different ways to fit your style, mood, look, and event, and when I say many, I totally mean it.

For example, her recent gorgeous creation in mustard yellow can be styled in 11 ways. Think of it as a real fashion transformer, or maybe a future of sustainable fashion where we all need just a handful of garments to fit our many needs.

“I got into designing because I was trying to make more clothes for myself, then I realized that I could actually do this for real, which made me start making more effort and putting in more work to make for other people and start my own brand,” Oyinda told Bored Panda in the interview that you can read in full below. And don't forget to check out our previous article on Oyinda's designs.
