Nigerian emerging fashion design label, St.Queis out with a new Spring/Summer 2014 lookbook tagged “The economic Chic”.
According to Ayotunde Bamigbade, the label’s director, the collection exploits the practicality and diversity of the chiffon fabric. “The Economic Chic”, is largely inspired by the realities of everyday living in a very populated city like Lagos- the hustle and bustle, hot weather, erratic power supply and so on. Chiffon is the material of choice because it is easy to maintain (which is saying it is “wash and wear’’ in colloquial terms), can be styled to fit work or night life and above all is comfortable in hot weather.“Being an economic chic is not about being frugal or wanting to wear cheap clothing. It’s about looking fabulous without having to clean out your bank account.
It is also about being able to stretch your wardrobe with staples like jackets”.

The collection has 10 unique designs which mostly borrow cues from early 90s' fashion:  bright colours, oversized lapels, ‘’press-buttons” and puff sleeves.
The designer also has a fetish for Alice bands, so as always she has included her signature head bands to the collection. "Alice bands should never be out of vogue", Ayo says…

YEMI ALADES RECIPE FOR A SUCCESSFUL CAREER

In a recent chat with Punch, the three-time BET nominee talks about her successful music career, the BET awards and her style. Read some excerpts. On the recipe for her success. It is definitely God, a team that doesn’t sleep and passion. Whether there is money or no money, it is the passion that keeps you going. I just focus on being me. Whatever I have achieved so far, they weren’t my aim. My aim was just to become better every day at what I do. Somehow, people noticed. I have been into music for about seven years professionally. There have been lows and highs but I keep learning every day and meeting new people. I have been winning awards, going for different shows and travelling the world. Here we are today at BET Award and hoping one day, it will be for the Grammy Award. It is a crazy ride but I am thankful that God chose me. I am myself. It is just that being a popular person doesn’t permit me to do some certain things I would have loved to do. I would have just been a...
