OUT & ABOUT AT THE MUSIC MEETS RUNWAY 2012- PART 2

Truth be told this was one gathering that had some of the most gorgeous & stylish set we have seen in a long while. It was like they had wanted the perfect occasion/event for them to go in large numbers.

There were so many people that we had to divide the out and about into 2 parts for you our readers viewing delight. Judging by the number of people that came for this show, it must have been a roaring success, to the extent that the organizers would have laughed to the bank. 10 upcoming designers, plus 10 musician. The host and hostess were D Banj & Millen Magesa. The venue was Eko Hotel Convention center. 

Check out the part 2.

OUT & ABOUT AT THE MUSIC MEETS RUNWAY 2012

We were not at the event, but we had it was very well organized and was fun to be at. But like we always try to do we got you a couple of pictures of the happenstance and guests that made the show a success. Like many always do at events like this, they went all out to showcase their understanding of style. A conservative estimate of those who came to the MMR 2012, would be like two to three thousand plus. We were able to get a few pictures for your viewing delight. 

Check them out.

MMR 2012 FEATURING DAVID BOWLER & TAIKOON

This was the first time many were seeing the collection by the debonair Pade Bowler, whose brand is known as David Bowler. The young man & his partner must be commended for bringing to the fashion scene, a fresh and interesting outlook to men's fashion and styling. Truth be told, it would take the very bold and extraordinarily stylish man to wear some of the outfits. 

Check out their collection.

MMR 2012 FEATURING RE BAHIA & WIZKID

RE BAHIA

It has been a fabulous year, for this formerly UK based young designer of note. She had a great showcase at the Arise 2012 and we heard she also gave a very good account of herself at this year's MMR. She was paired with one of the best entertainers in 2012, the one and only Wizkid. 

Check out her collection.We believe the brand would rule 2013

WHY DAVIDO DIDN'T DO THE MMR 2012 AS EXPECTED

Davido was one of the artistes that was headlined to do this year's edition of the Music Meets Runway showcase. The idea behind the showcase was to have a perfect fusion of 2 elements of entertainment-Music & Fashion. It's something like the Rip the Runway, fashion & music showcase done in America. 

This year's edition had on the bill, Davido, May D, Wizkid, Efya, Iyanya, Taikoon, Ajebutter 23, Naeto C, Burna Boy & D banj. While all the others performed, one name that was hyped but didn't perform was the only Omo Baba Olowo himself Davido. We heard, the 19 year old musician, was paired to perform with a young upcoming designer- Olayinka Fashola of Moofa, and the pair was supposed to open the show on the D-day. Only for the organizers to first shift their performance to 5th and later the last, but still yet no show from Davido.

Moofa's showcase had to come out 2nd to the last, just before Lanre DaSilva's showcase and instead of Davido, K-Switch who was not part of the MMR 2012 billing before had to take his place. The reason given officially was that he had suddenly developed a 'throat infection', though he was upstairs in Eko Hotel. Throat infection? Yes that was the official excuse given, but according to some unconfirmed gist, the young crooner couldn't perform because he was too far gone to perform, so he had to be replaced by K-switch.

We would love to have a proper confirmation of the true reason he could not perform from his management.

K SWITCH

Olayinka Fashola to us, is one of the most incredibly talented young designers we know. Anyone else can argue on the contrary. She was one of the major highlights of this year's edition of the MMR 2012. Her very creative use of the very expensive lace fabric must be commended.
