“Roots of Radiance” Ennystyles unveils a bold celebration of African Identity

Apanisile Anuoluwapo, a designer known by the brand name ‘ENNYSTYLES’, remains a brand grounded in cultural pride and timeless expression in the ever-changing world of fashion, where trends come and go with the seasons. Ennystyles welcomes the world to experience African fashion in its most powerful and simple form with the release of its newest collection, “Roots of Radiance.” This is not just fabric or adornment, but rather a vibrant story of beauty, resiliency, and tradition.

There is a remarkable blend of heritage and modernity in the “Roots of Radiance” series. Its designs combine appealing designs and flowing forms with natural, rich hues like marine teals, lush greens, and golden yellows. Each garment conveys a multi-layered narrative: the bright hues reflect vitality and life, the black tones represent strength and depth, and the circular designs inspire a sense of wholeness, togetherness, and the infinite cycles of nature and community that form African existence.
Apanisile Anuoluwapo, the founder and designer of Ennystyles, is at the center of the brand; her love of fashion transcends appearances. “This collection holds great personal significance for me,” Ennystlyes says. The goal is to remind African women that they are the bearers of generations’ worth of traditions. We are makers, innovators, and storytellers in addition to being fashion consumers. When we dress intentionally, we pay tribute to those who came before us since our style is our past.

However, “Roots of Radiance” is not just for African women. It’s an international invitation. The collection conveys an essence of empowerment that goes beyond the textiles and cuts. It celebrates African characteristics, shapes, and stories, challenging the limited notions of beauty and fashion. Young designers and artists from the continent and its diaspora are encouraged to take up space, to be unapologetic, and to let their work proudly and loudly represent their origins.

Apansile explains, “We chose the name ‘Roots of Radiance’ because our roots are what make us shine. Without them, we lose our grounding and our glow. This collection is a love letter to the women who have carried African style through the ages, from the market women to the queens, the mothers, the artists, the dreamers. It’s for all of them, and it’s for everyone who wants to carry a piece of that spirit forward.”

Apansile’s Ennystyles continues to rise as a force in the fashion world, proving that African brands can set the pace globally, not just follow it. With “Roots of Radiance,” the brand invites the world to see, feel, and wear the unbreakable beauty of African identity.
