Porn Star Fashion

selected by
Sampson iroabuchi Onwuka

The outfit is not exactly loud but the choice of material is noteworthy. Most porn stars do not know how to dress. Kim Kardashian is not – not officially a porn star but a collection of her outfits in the past year or so fall short a model fashion for porn star. A fashion week for playboy - who are the only in the market - is littered with lingerie too severe for our industry, at least those in the industry should dress porn professional 'iti etc.,...

Swahili Fashion Week 2016

The successful 2015 fashion week in Swahili leads the case for 2016. Once more some of the interesting couturiers and traditional tailors show their worth in an all African Showcase. December 2nd through the 4th Swahili brand of the African designers will be the toast of the Continent. The designer we are may be interested in Gabriel Mollel. He is an African designer and some of his design signature is imitation of tribal garb for consumption. Gabriel Mollel like other Africans is face with challenge of re-populating the fashion diversity.

2015 Swahili is a reaching success for the range of talents that managed to grace the show and for 2016, the stakes are not lower. 2015 represents a departure from earlier attempts at the Swahili Fashion week which was founded by ‘Mustafa Hassanali’ in 2008 with the mantra of representing ‘East African’ fashion industries and the ‘Made in Africa’ ‘couturiers’. 2015 Swahili fashion week brought East Africa to the attention of Africans.

A challenge of an industry

We may look at the ‘made in Africa’ as a motivation for founders – for this, it has gravity. It lends to a crusade which does not easily translate to sale largely for the general theme of promoting a ‘made in Africa’ and thin emphasis on ‘East Africa’ which is translucent. As an outcome, we natural look for the new translation of traditional African garbs into forms readily available for consumptions. The Lagos Fashion week suffered its problems of exposure but there are brands names that are yet to migrate from African traditional attire to custom products by indigenous tailors. The crass view of the new products showcased during the fashion week lack some of the pedigree in gifted tailoring. The full measure of the designs and cloths in terms of traditional wear show the struggles with making the cloths and not necessary the technology.

One of the enduring problems of organizing fashion week is conflict over scheduled showcase and the different houses of fashion who sometimes labor with new materials. Many of the stores have the problems of execution following the first 3 weeks a fashion week and there are question of delivery if the demand increases. There is reason to believe that this is a general problem with the industry but in relative African fashion environment, there are other material issues of coverage.  

Any given designer with some standing in business will retail at fifty tailors for lead design/s and the rest are arranged for the factor workers. For African businesses, the issues of distribution and the price range prove an obstacle in having a close-out of new trends. For that high fashion is profitable in select African countries and for Swahili and Dar es salaam, Tanzania, there are reasons to expect more in 2016 from a 2015 grow show. There are number of remedies for problems like this, one of which is to have multi-channels for latest designs and for tailors to show their interest without losing their hallmark.

The other solution is primarily a question of media houses, for instance, the names of the leading tailors or designers may be gifted a great opportunity to showcase their cloths. It may entail working with other tailors and photographers from other fashion environments, and it may involve awards for the better tailors and workers in the industries. A fashion statement is an idea translated differently.  Cloths from African tailors lack leads and lack hints of distinction.

Taryor gabriel FOR Bellanaija

Christmas selection for Taryor Gabriels. The selection of dapper and bespoke suits is from Taryor Gabriels, part tailor part designer. The suits photographed against set pieces inspire different shades of classic men apparel. The pictures are worth a consideration but the designer seem to exorcise diminished memoirs of colonial men's wear. The suits are perhaps collection from several sources but the language of the designer strike the audience as an attempt to chat new territories for useful cloths for men.



Leading designs for men emphasis the thin lapels, single button and a tight front and woolen material. Some of the names in fashion expedite the trends in the tight suits which unlike Armani suits (which strip the inner lining of the traditional suits for easy and affable disposition), the samples tend to emphasis the outlines of a regular suits. What we notice in Taryor Gabriels is a throw back in suits and collection apparel for men that give hints of originality, further hints on what may or may not be expected of men.



The pictures are randomly from bellanaija and pinterest and fall short of the declarative theme of Agbani which is to throw light on the occasion that chime with the new trends and new design from or through a fashion week. Such names like Taryor Gabriel leads a fashion statement that needs to be taken with lime in nestling for Christmas and perhaps for New Year.  In what category we place him, it is really a democracy of the tailors.

The artistic light of the author 'Taryor Gabriel' is not exactly (ganiyu-mere) - he might last long enough at the front stage but to survive as a major player for men suits he needs to constantly break new grounds.

How to dress is usually a problem for men, but in this outfit the composer 'Taryor Gabriel' tackles the problems of elegance with particular relapse to fronting. For many centuries men tend to wear the same style and the same types of suits. In this posse for the cameras, the composition forces a second look especially the dress up appeal. There are sometimes hints of departure from trends but there are usually few.

The model sit up, the hands hang over his the laps - almost akimbo but showing the elegance of a suit that survive in part because of its colors; revealing a contrast of the blue litter to the black shoes. The outfit is Nigerian imagination, an composition acquired through taste, immediate in its impressions, commanding in execution but ordinary given the leniency to borrowed culture.






If a Christmas is to be held separately for fashion, it seems that Taryor Gabriel is not a bad argument to follow, that there is elegance from how the parts fit to the powerful styles for men but where there are mention of distribution and store house, the Nigerian is struggling to make the acceptance expected with mew styles for men.

The suit above is a rare fit for the cameras. It shows a currency with recent suits for men and there is attention to interesting men of sports or executive highlighting a robust occasion.



Below is a good model of the composers preoccupation. The Taylor is making a statement and the statement is a little too obvious to encourage remarks, it dies lonesome with flames of new leads from old.
