90s Model Management, an all-male-led modelling agency has marked its 5th anniversary of discovering and nurturing young models out of Africa. Speaking on the 5th year milestone, Founder and Head Booker of 90s Model Management, Maurice Sokari, said: 90s Model Management was birthed from two words: vision and dreams. Our scouting techniques are three words: discovery, development, and direction. We find our models and roll in tandem with their purpose. With all these beautiful faces, we learned to learn as we go. With progression as to team hiring and recruitment, it has been one for the books. All our hires are past models. There’s some sort of experience with them and now coming on board to work for us, it’s a blessing not just to them but to myself and to the model manager who has been with me from the very beginning of the agency, so celebrating five years is something we are proud of with many milestones. We’ve had models don many beautiful pieces: Dior exclusivities, Yves Saint Laurent exclusivities, Celine exclusivities, Fendi, etc. We’re no longer counting how many exclusives we do at the 90s Model because it’s a seasonal habit for us, models go through exclusivities; […] The post 90s Model Management Launches ‘Nineties Magazine’ to Commemorate its 5th Anniversary appeared first on BN Style.

UDIAHGEBI has unveiled its tenth official collection called “SYMPOSIUM; The Beauty Of Parley” featuring avantgarde style icon, TV Presenter & actor Denrele Edun. In the words of the creative director, Symposium explores the idea of representation in political and legal spaces, drawing its core inspiration from my fascination with political intrigue and the intricate art of subtle warfare, and negotiation. “Power play with clothes” “garments as weapons”, “Audentes fortuna juvat” trsl: “fortune favors the bold” these were some of the key phrases that formed the idea for this collection. Through a fusion of 18th/19th century bourgeois, and gothic renaissance, I wanted to create beautifully refined and clean looks that still felt raw and blindingly honest to look at. Featuring powerful style lines inspired by Victorian corsetry, medieval battle armor, turn of the last century dandy jackets, corporate shirts and of course the classic black dress, this collection deconstructs these classic “powerhouse” silhouettes and reconstructs them in ways that defy the binary, delving into a space that is traditionally conservative and unmoving and sought to create a space entirely its own. In a world so quick to resort to arms to answer conflict, Symposium’s coy elegance is an ode to strategic warfare […] The post UDIAHGEBI’s ‘SYMPOSIUM; The Beauty Of Parley’ Explores the Idea of Representation in Political Spaces appeared first on BN Style.
