Encomium
The high-octane ball where guests dressed to the nines in very formal monochrome togs threw up many fashion forward maestros and separated style icons who know what time it is.
The Sunday, August 10, 2014, Black & White Ball, at Ruby Gardens, Kilometer 11, Lekki-Epe Expressway, Lekki (Lagos) delighted to no end as all manners of beautiful ensembles rubbed shoulders.
SENATOR FLORENCE ITA-GIWA
The shimmering, floating gown adorned by the politician, socialite and businesswoman of note was an attention grabber which fitted to a T.
The bejeweled number parading different geometric designs, accentuated with a belt, told a story we are not tired of repeating…
DAME EMMANUELLA ABIMBOLA FASHOLA
When you are simplicity in flesh, you ooze confidence and attract adoration without trying. The first lady of Lagos never impresses or tries too hard. Her garb is a statement in modesty.
With flowing lace barely exposing her hard and neck, and head – gear, her attire whispered ‘appropriateness’.
ISHIOMA ONYEBO
The supermodel and business woman who’s tall and lithe and beautiful, departed from her very young look and stepped up her game with a matured two-piece number flavoured with a mid-riff appliqué in black.
Demure and enchan-ting, Ishioma Onyebo has learnt well.
MARIAM ELISHA
Former beauty queen and designer, Mariam Elisha’s apparel proclaimed her preoccupation as a walking model of her vocation.
The dramatic all-white tog with an unusual cape separated Mariam Elisha as a courageous woman unabashed about what makes her happy and fulfilled.
CHINOR EMEKA
When your skin glows and you are happy with your body, you have won the battle many are perpetually engaged in. You have so little to worry about except wear a smile.
But Chinor Emeka made an effort to pick an apparel which turned her into a princess.
