VICNATE Introduces the First Release of its N°8 Collection Called “Lady Keith”
VICNATE, the luxury fashion house known for its timeless designs, has launched the first release of its N°8 collection, Lady Keith. Inspired by Slim Keith, the iconic American socialite whose effortless elegance defined an era, this collection draws on a philosophy of haute couture with a fresh, contemporary sensibility. N°8 (Lady Keith) embodies the essence of ‘forever-wear,’ with each piece designed to transcend decades and generations. Speaking on his vision, Victor Anate, designer and creative director at Vicnate, said I wanted to explore the fifty years wearing timeline; one most likely involving three generations of women, having pieces that will serve each wearer amidst the stylistic waves of each decade. I wanted to explore these ideas from the standpoint of a couturier but with couture viewed as a spirit, a vibe, whilst still maintaining the lightness I associate with traditional haute couture. The first release of N°8 introduces a range of separates—gossamer-light blouses paired with impeccably tailored trousers—that reflect the designer’s vision for “forever wear.” Anate’s designs allow the wearer to reveal and conceal on her terms, with a nod to personal agency and elegance passed down through generations. While this first release of N°8 gives a glimpse into the […] The post VICNATE Introduces the First Release of its N°8 Collection Called “Lady Keith” appeared first on BN Style.

Lancôme’s bold #MessWithLancôme campaign lands Lagos with a vibrant event that invited beauty influencers and makeup lovers to embrace creativity and self-expression without limits. Held at Jewel Aieda in Lekki, the event encouraged attendees to experiment with bold, messy makeup looks in line with the campaign’s “no rules” approach. The event opened with a speech from Joe Zakour, Lancôme’s Marketing Manager, who set the tone by diving into the heart of the #MessWithLancôme campaign. He highlighted the importance of self-expression and creativity, encouraging everyone to experiment with bold, imperfect, and unpredictable looks—an attitude that aligns perfectly with Lancôme’s celebration of individuality.

Hollywood’s Unsung Hero Djimon Hounson is OkayAfrica’s Fall 2024 Digital Cover
Benin-born two-time Oscar-nominated actor Djimon Hounson has been dubbed “an unsung hero of Hollywood” as Okay Africa’s Fall 2024 digital cover. With his early roles etched in Hollywood history, the  actor speaks about his over three decades of acting career, being underappreciated in the industry and being able to sustain his career. Sometimes I hear comments from studios like, ‘Oh, Djimon Hounsou is too noble to play this role, it’s nice to hear that the studios are thinking that. For him, it signifies that he has achieved one of his early ambitions: to portray characters of integrity rather than ones that perpetuate stereotypes, particularly of Africans. The persistent underappreciation frustrates him that he didn’t feel he’s fairly compensated for his work. He uses his acting currency to combat modern slavery and human trafficking through the Djimon Hounsou Foundation. The foundation’s mission is deeply personal for Hounsou, arising from his own quest to grasp his history, which he didn’t learn much about as a youngster. How can Afro-descendants relate to their heritage when people like me, who were born in Africa, often feel disconnected from their roots? The foundation also helps Africans in the diaspora reconnect with their cultural, ancestral and […] The post Hollywood’s Unsung Hero Djimon Hounson is OkayAfrica’s Fall 2024 Digital Cover appeared first on BN Style.

Idia Aisien is GQ South Africa’s September Cover as Nollywood’s Next Superstar
Award-winning actress, model, TV host, philanthropist and luxury lifestyle influencer, Idia Aisien, has consistently demonstrated an unshakable determination to succeed. Many know her from her roles on Spice TV and Arise TV or her debut acting role as the lead in the remake of the Nollywood classic Nneka the Pretty Serpent, a Netflix original, which she nailed. But beyond the spotlight, she is also a driven, goal-oriented woman with a deep passion for humanitarian work. In 2018, Idia launched the International Development Initiative in Africa (IDIA Project), a non-profit organisation based in Nigeria, to highlight and amplify positive African stories. On her style, Idia said, I would describe my style as elevated chic. I love clothes that are elegant but still make a statement, so I tend to buy a lot of exaggerated pieces like giant bags and hats. Some days I make a statement in all-black or beige, other times I’ll opt for a strong colorful accessory. However, on the red carpet, I like to be more edgy and fashion-forward. I think it’s important to experiment and have fun with style. On balancing her career both in Nigeria and the international scene, I am proudly Nigerian, but also very […] The post Idia Aisien is GQ South Africa’s September Cover as Nollywood’s Next Superstar appeared first on BN Style.

Nigerian lifestyle brand,  Hauwa de Zuzu (HDZ) is delighted to unveil its new collection, IPINLE: a denim collection with Indigenous interpretation. The designer’s Fulani and Yoruba roots sparked her love and appreciation for the diversity and uniqueness of different cultures worldwide, which in turn inspired her to interpret and fuse that admiration with her passion for fashion and the arts. Beginning as a passion project for quite some time before it was officially launched in 2019, HDZ is a celebration of identity, unity, and togetherness, born from the need to celebrate culture and women, while uplifting and spreading the powerful message of solidarity and kinship. It is about heritage and pride in our diversity and individuality. “Hauwa” means unique, wonderful and awesome and “Zuzu” means beautiful, confident, intelligent, and resilient; merged these words describe the perfect HDZ woman. We believe every woman deserves to be celebrated and represented in her strength, beauty and resilience which is exactly what we do with our clothes. The juxtaposition of bold colors and rich fabrics with intricate detailing and prints, creates the perfect recipe for cultural fusion of modern but timeless pieces. HDZ is wearable art that is proudly African and reveres in its authenticity.
