REPORTAGE It is true

REPORTAGE It is true what they say that it takes a colossal personality to bring some outfits to life. The irony of this outfit is that it is black and full of skulls – representing death! But it needed someone who is full of life and controversy to handle its drama. In Ifu Ennada, Toyin Lawani found the perfect muse – and she was right! Toyin Lawani herself was present at the AMVCA. She wore a dress which she said was ‘a dress from hell.’ It was a pitchblack dress with a bull’s horn fitted at the front. Although this was a lovely dress, a member of our Glamsquad Fashion Police team, however, pointed out that the dress failed to highlight Toyin’s great figure, which we all love and admire. After photos of Ifu Ennada in the skull dress hit the internet, it got millions of views and comments within the first hour. Basking in the attention she was getting, Ennada lived up to her controversial billing by making a post that her outfit cost one hundred thousand U.S. Dollars. 8 www.glamsquadmagazine.com

REPORTAGE The post was greeted with huge criticism and a media backlash from critics who claimed that the dress did not worth that much. After much media backlash and perhaps a back-channel intervention from Toyin Lawani herself, Ifu Enada would finally spill the truth about her AMVCA skull dress. In a different post, she cleared the air, saying that the designer, Toyin Lawani, had created a dress worth more than one hundred thousand dollars, and she was honoured to model it. Her new post proves that she didn’t buy or own the dress, and that Toyin Lawani may have called her to order – perhaps not to overprice her outfits and scare potential clients. But whatever it is, the truth is that AMVCA dress would remain the topic of discussion for a long time. In your books, rate the AMVCA skull dress on a scale of 1 to 10. www.glamsquadmagazine.com 9
