Ricardo Johnson's avant-garde piece - Azar. - Contributed

Designer Quote: "In this collection, I wanted to express the various dimensions of life, with each piece knitted with an expression of how I felt and view life from within, hence the name, The Finest. Each piece reflects - expresses what we all want out of life: happiness, success, authority and much more. Each design has a different rhythm of sewing, so as to reflect the different feeling that we have in life. For example, there is the moment of happiness, where everything is colourful, or exciting. The designs are eye-catching with lively colours. The Avant Garde piece depicts authority, in that I wanted to send that message of warfare, where one emerges victorious hence why I look at the entire line as a celebration of life. The Finest is in part who I am and what I believe in: 'Be the best you can be and be impressive at it'."
