The 8th Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards went down last Saturday night, at the Eko Hotel and Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos, and it was celebration of haute couture of Africa.
Call it a gallery of fashion art as movie people across Africa came resplendent in different forms of fashion expressions. From the mesmerizing to the captivating; from the colourful to the glittering; and the bohemian to the bizarre, it was fashion explosion all the way spruced with glamour and glitz.
Toke Makinwa, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, Uti Nwachukwu and Sika Osei mounted the red carpet.
