The fast growing and highly stocked designer in Lagos, the
US and UK, known for her structured designs made from African rich prints and
leather, is to introduce for the first time magazine basket, notepads and key
wallet designs; this is aside new handbag/clutches designs.
Not new to this kind of creative exhibitions, O’Eclat has
been featured in HVS New York Fashion Spring/Summer 2012 Runway Show, and Lagos
Style Fashion Week. The fashion and home accessories label was also a part of
the first edition of Creativite held last year.
Conceptualized by the duo of Taiwo Debo-Akande and Kehinde
Osotimehin, both lawyers but with a deep passion for the creative industry, the
exhibition’s aim is to “create awareness for the scores of young creative
entrepreneurs out there.”
The maiden edition, held last year at the Four Points by
Sheraton Hotel, Lekki, Lagos, with about 10 participating exhibitors that
included O’Eclat, I.O.N Jewelry, Dainty Affairs, Thots on Tees, and a host of
others, was highly attended and garnered good reviews.
This year’s exhibition is to feature a total of 13
exhibitors that comprise of a sculptor, wood carver, artist, cake maker, shoe
maker, hand bag maker, jewelry maker, fashion designer, interior decorator,
photographer, make-up artist, card maker, soap maker, amongst others.
