Hey fiercefam,
How was the weekend ???
I needed to do this post asap as the pictures were growing too old without been put up.
I attended Day 4 (the final day) of the MTN Lagos Fashion and Design week and though i did'nt get an opportunity to style at the event (despite the emails i sent to the so-called person in charge), i enjoyed a few shows from a few designers and will love to share these with you.
Josh Samuels (winner of the young talents category)
The collection blew me away and reminded of life in the 60's as simulated by series like Mad Men or Boardwalk Empire. It was a clean display of retro, plaids, preppy and 60's stuff. In my opinion, he totally deserved the prize/award.
Old religion was inspired by the same elements as the collection featured neon colors, brights, vintage and plaid stuff as well.
Vintage Collete had long flowy and lace pieces
Sunny Rose had fun and feminine pieces in sheer, denim and pastel colors
Grey gave me life with burgundy, army green, lemon, pink, red and white pieces, sheer, frills, pleats, ruffles, flirty, lace and seperates. There was a lot of stuff to pick from as the collection leaned towards formal to event to play dresses.
Alter Ego came after with color, print and a mix of textures, i found the velvet/net/lace combo interesting (positively that is lol)
Other designers who showed were mathew williamson, lanre da silva ajayi and jewel by lisa.
Now, to what we wore.....
So i had three options to choose from but ended up picking this cuz i felt the fun and funky vibe when i tried it on. The denim and floral print combo was working for me and coral splash, perfect for a night of fashion. Threw my hair in a bun and off i went.
Meet my photographer for the night....
I wonder what life will be without fashion, it was a great night : ) Until later, have a great and fashionable week
its Ms Modish,
xx
