What do you get when you mix a classic fairytale with African glamour? A red-carpet moment that eats and leaves no crumbs.
On Friday, March 21st, Snow White premiered at Filmhouse Palms, Lekki, and let us tell you it was a whole fashion statement. The theme? Regal, bold, and dripping in African glamour. And the guests? They understood the assignment and delivered effortlessly.
From structured corseted gowns to gold-threaded skirts, every outfit told a story. The night was a masterclass in turning heads. One guest took the classic Snow White aesthetic and ran with it a royal blue lace bustier, a voluminous golden skirt, and a red apple in hand like a true queen. Another showed up in a striking red and gold ensemble, proving that blending tradition with modern elegance is an art form.
The men didn’t come to play either
Because fashion is not just for the ladies, and the men made sure we knew that. Think sleek, embroidered agbadas, tailored kaftans, and monochrome fits that screamed effortless confidence. Textured fabrics, lace-up details, and traditional caps? Yes, yes, and yes. African fashion stays undefeated.
Accessories? A whole moment
Accessories made a statement and gele headpieces stood tall, coral beads layered over elegant necklines, and metallic embellishments shimmered under the lights. The color palette was equally striking deep reds, royal blues, shimmering golds, and earthy greens all came together to celebrate both the Snow White fairytale and the vibrancy of African fashion.
It was a night of storytelling through style where heritage met high fashion, and every guest stepped onto the red carpet like a modern-day royal. An unforgettable fashion moment!
