#TAUGHTS FROM LAGOS FASHION AND DESIGN WEEK:Abu Praise Ilamosi

Lagos Fashion and Design Week (LFDW) was a multi-day fashion event platform that aims to drive the Nigerian and ultimately, the African fashion industry; by bringing together buyers, consumers and the media to view the current collections of African designers in the fashion capital of Lagos, Nigeria.

As a leading fashion event on the African fashion calendar, LFDW leads the way with initiatives that supports, strengthens and develops the fashion industry. Beyond the runway, the annual event provides a physical platform that’s gradually repositioning fashion as a useful tool for commerce and creativity in Nigeria.

Abu Praise Ilamosi, a fashion blogger at my style lookbook was present at this years LFDW which started on 26th October, 2016 to 29th October 2016..According to praise its her first time at the lagos fashion and design week, as a newbie, she didnt have much expectations and it was alright and she hopes to share more stories next year. Because of work she was only present for the last two events. According to her

·                     Freebies- Who no like awoof? lol. One of the upsides of the event were the freebies. I got a customised phone case courtesy of Sterling bank, a goody bag from Maybelline and Eva+. Also, there was a photo booth where you get your pictures taken for free. I took some pictures with Uzo but sadly we were unable to get the pictures, they ran out of paper for printing out the copies.

·                     The Street Style- This is the fun part, although I didn't exactly get to fully enjoy this part since I arrived late on both dates.  This is the part where your picture gets taken and possibly you might get interviewed, loads of press around aka Paparazzi. You might want to get your picture game on and smile always. I wasn't exactly prepared for this*covers face*
