Fashions Finest Africa Awards last Friday in Lagos was all glitz, glam and grandeur. The Fashions Finest Africa Awards was birthed out the need to celebrate those who have made a mark in the fashion industry.
The Fashions Finest fashion Africa weekend extravaganza kicked off in the morning on Friday, May 25, 2018 with an enlightening fashion conference at the Balmoral Centre, Federal Palace Hotel, Lagos themed “Increasing Nigeria’s Participation in the Global Garment Production Industry”. Then, in the evening, the Fashions Finest Africa Awards took place at the same venue
The show’s host, Bolanle Olukanni, did what she knew how to do best carrying the crowd along and she also looked stunning in all her outfits. There were also breathtaking performances by AFX Theatre Company and Juliana Dede.
