One designer that continues to make a mark with African designs is Ade Bakare. His client list include A list celebrities, first ladies and women who appreciate creative couture designs that make them stand out
Interestingly, he has designed costumes for the characters Adora and Teni, the wife and daughter of the billionaire, respectively, in the TV series Battleground. His words: “Designing for specific characters still has it challenges and briefs are given with regard to appropriate styles, colours and silhouette.”
Bakare’s choice here are colours that are very bright and vivid, rich silk in adire, chiffons, organza and his trademark gazar comes with great effect.”
