The iconic Deola Sagoe of Nigeria raised the bar one more time at the prestigious Mercedes Benz fashion week Africa.She held the audience spellbound, and at a time audience thought it was a lace affair only to realised that one of Nigeria’s native fabric has been made into a Deola Sagoe’s called lacsk.Deola who has been in the fashion industry for twenty five years,showed the world why she is known as Nigeria’s foremost designer.
I leave you with Deola’s designs at Africa’s most prestigious fashion week.However, in a way of celebrating African models Deola used top models from Tanzania,Namibia,South Africa,Ivory Coast,Ghana,Sudan and six Nigerian top models.Bunmi Ademokoya had three looks and opened the show with an asoke lace white bridal gown and closed it with yet another of Deola’s master piece the peach haute couture dress that was just amazing.
Moreover,in Deola’s way of saying i am proud of my heritage and paying homage to those who make the asoke cloth she has continually promoted this cloth and it has become the people choice of fabric for high profile parties in her home country.We at fashion net work africa salute this great woman of Africa.
To end the show she came out with one of Nigeria’s best Ifeoma Williams and her daughter and again she brought class to the closing of the curtain.
