“Sassen started as conversation between Omolara Obanishola and a friend, both of whom had a shared love of subcultures, youth movements, street style, fashion theory, concepts and culture. They hit a pause in conversation as they watched a group of guys at a skate park and asked…where are all the girls? Where are the collective spaces that girls congregate? Where are the girl crews? What are the platforms the frequently use and where are their spaces online? Where do we see women?

Sassen has now become a space led by Omolara in which to show a diverse representation of the coolest women we meet. Alongside collaborator Isabelle Gray, we document the interesting women we see ; their fashion, style and attitude, globally.

Usually its men shooting women and with every picture we capture we like to think we've made a bond with someone who would otherwise be a stranger. What shooting other women has taught us is the need and importance of making interactions and celebrating other women doing their thing no matter how big or small each day. From those women we have gained outfit inspiration, struck up conversations, shared a laugh, received words of wisdom and gained recommendations on everything from new brands, places to go, music to listen to, films to watch and so much more.
