His designs are purposeful, experimental and have a deep rooting into his background in fashion and his heritage as a man of African heritage.

Familia Quantum Leap is a title representing his growth from his last collection till now. at the turn of the second decade of this century, Eastwood is growing in his consideration of his clothing and creating unique pieces that inspires his audience. He is a designer with a self sufficient mentality that applies symbolism into his garments in a subtle fashion.

The Installation during Fashion Week was an immersive experience with an eerie feel. the models stood still on platforms as they showcased the lastest pieces from the collection while being surrounded by an artistic representation of nature, some of the models were surrounded by a shallow pool of water making for an excellent show with spectacular sound design, created by Jay Trench and Eastwood Danso

Here are some of our photos from the presentation.
