It was a real show of hats .

While in the big brother house, Ike ( the Nigerian – American ) housemate always made it known that he would like to pursue a career in modelling . And like a fairy god mother,Lagos fashion week granted his wish . Ike firstly switched up his look by getting a perm in his hair and then he hit the runway Hard. of all the other housemates, he had the most outing (3) in all. His strut was a tad awkward ( looked like he did not care much for the clothes or what he was doing ) but he was cheered each time he stepped on the runway . We wonder which agency would sign him on . Hmm….

ABOUT THE OFF SITE SHOWS

Good bye to the days when the hall had to be evacuated for ‘certain’ designers so that their key loyalists could have premium seats . These days , the off site shows are becoming rather popular . This year , the likes of Lisa Folawiyo, Face Aj  and Iamisigo took their shows off the runway just for an exclusive viewing . Those who attended gave some good reviews about Lisa Folawiyo’s outing , while some could not make out what Iamisigo had in mind .

TEMPLE MUSE RELOCATES

What better time to unveil an all new Temple Muse . as they have moved the store to a more spacious and shopper friendly location ( the bad road leading to their former location was an eyesore ). The like of Lisa Folawiyo and Iamisigo had their off site shows at the new location . The palatial edifice was quite impressive with exotic chandeliers and a wide stairway . which leads to the upper quarters .We say Kudos to the Temple Muse duo
