This is how the photographer describes the shoot:

This editorial is a celebration of Igbo heritage, reimagined through the lens of contemporary fashion. Every element was intentionally curated to tell a story of identity, royalty, and timeless elegance.
The rich burgundy drapery, woven raffia discs, traditional instruments, calabashes, and vintage trunks create a setting that honours craftsmanship, history, and the legacy passed down through generations. The groom’s Isi Agu, red cap, coral beads, and fur stole embody the dignity and prestige of the Igbo man, while the bride’s embellished corset, George wrapper, coral jewellery, sculptural hairstyle, and refined makeup present the modern Igbo woman—graceful, confident, and deeply connected to her roots.
