So in the middle of the month of June, the city of Lagos shook as Bolanle Austen-Peter premiered her new movie titled ‘The Bling Lagosians’ at an event themed “Eko For Show”. The event hosted a lot of top celebrities and you can bet they were dressed to kill. They all took advantage of the theme to interpret fashion the EKO way.
The word EKO means Lagos and we know Lagosians have no match when it comes to dressing – from their ‘gele’ to their accessories, makeup, to their dressing, their shoes and bags, the Lagos women definitely make heads turn.
For this reason, we have Daala Oruwari styled by Style Territory at the top of our list. The goddess of skills nailed it from head to toe. Dressed in a flamboyant ‘iro and buba’ made from aso-oke she matched it with a statement making headgear, ideal accessories and flawless shoes.
This babe didn’t stop there too, she gave us the ‘I’m-in-charge’ facial expression and I cannot overemphasize the fact that her headgear stole the night. She totally interpreted the theme for the night, no wonder she went home with a whopping 500,000naira price for being the best dressed of the night.
Next on our list is the stunning Beverly Naya in Weiz Dhurm Franklyn’s fingers. I’m certain she carefully picked the colours she combined.
Her green dazzling outfit combined with her purple ‘gele’. What captivated me in her dressing was definitely the style of the outfit and the colour combination.
Osas Ighodaro-Ajibade is a whole spec in Toju Foyeh’s hands. I mean take a look at this drop dead gorgeous mother of one. I’m all for the royal blue colour, so exquisite and the dazzling gold design at the top is definitely to die for. The shoe, ohh! simply put, Gold and Elegant.
Another celebrity that stole the night has to be Inidima Okojie styled by Komee. This stunning lady went all out, expressing the theme with a mixture of both ancient and modern materials to feed our eyes to the fullest. We can’t deny the effect that colour black has on us and her aso-oke style was a whole mood. Now you see that her ‘gele’ ehn whether modern or ancient, I don’t care all I know is it cannot but catch our attention.
The final person on this list is Denola Grey …Hmmm this fine Youngman has to be the most fashionable male celebrity in the country and his dressing to this event wasn’t an exception. His choice of colours worked well with his skin tone, his accessories shined bright, he had our eyes glued to his feet and the animal skin material on his shoulder just did it for the night. His outfit was made by D29.
If you have big feet and live in Nigeria, always remember that no outfit is ever complete without shoes from ShoeMiners.
