Loungin' by Mc Dowell's Review

The yuletide month was kickstarted with a blast in a fine city.On the 2nd of December,the beautiful city of Port Harcourt stood still for LOUNGING,an event organized by BUC'GREEN CONCEPT and sponsored by McDowell's and Lesukka Event Centre and Bar,which was also the venue of the event.

The event was a beautiful fusion of fashion,music,comedy and the introduction of a whiskey brand into the city of Port Harcourt by McDowell's.It centred on the showcasing of a few Nigerian talents in the fashion sphere and highlighted the likes of Ejiro Amos Tafiri from lagos,who was the major designer of the night and also Cecee Seed form lagos,then finally Snazzy fashion from Enugu.These young talents wowed the crowd with their beautiful designs and of course,beautiful models.However,i used my Blackberry to take pictures so the quality of the pictures might not be very good.Plus,i'm not a photographer so please make do with what i am able to offer.

Ejiro Amos Tafiri

Ejiro Amos Tafiri,a native of Delta state but based in lagos,was the major star of the day with very beatiful and original designs that got me drooling.She was supposed to be a medical student but on a visit to a designer's,she got inspired to pursue a career in fashion.Though her parents weren't pleased with the decision,she went ahead to become one of Nigeria's young fashion talents.Below are some of her designs,she's into female clothing.

 

 

 

 

 

Cecee Seed

 

This 18 year old revealed that she gets her inspiration from watching fashion shows.She's also based in lagos and is doing well at this point of her career.Here are some of her designs;

 

 

 



 

 

Snazzy Fashion

 

Snazzy is a young fashion designer from Enugu,he's basically into male clothing and wants to put a smile on the faces of the people of Port Harcourt.Here are some of his designs;

 



 

 



 Music interjected in various points of the events and the renditions were from the likes of Kome,an act that got me fixed for the entire duration of his song 'Wayo'.The guy's talented and his vocals would almost get R.Kelly jealous.McDowell whiskey was served to those with the head for it.The event ended at about 10:30pm with the closing remark giving by Sylvanus.

Generally,i'd say they put up a good show.The setting was good,the lighting was nice.The co-ordination was a little challeged.So,i'd say there's always room for improvement.
