hmm.. I could see myself rocking anyone of those outfits. Some sophisticated, some traditional... I like that.
ReplyDeletei'd hate for any man i know to appear in public in any of these...with the possible exception of the "fusion" pieces...and i'm being generous.
ReplyDelete@claudis - thanks for the comment..I can see that you are a fashion forward dude
ReplyDelete@anonymous - LOL...I guess they are not for every dude
I'd rock that contemporarary jacket anyday, it appears its inspired by the revolutionary army though.
ReplyDeleteOdika(it's like) comb and sccissor is facing extinction along with the Gorillas... some of these dudes need to brush their hair or get a pair of scissors biko. Lol.
ReplyDeleteOn a serious note I am feeling the suits
okay...the r very creative but honestly i will prefer my man in the suits unless we r going for a fashion show or something.
ReplyDeleteHouse of Ole 's suits are quite nice..
ReplyDeleteThe suits are actually quite nice
ReplyDeletelol @ house of ole, cute hehe
ReplyDeleteHmm....the trad wears are seriously the gayest outfits i've seen on any runway...ever! I know it's s'posed to be "haute", but seriously??? the red bubu-esque one nearly caused me to have a seizure.
ReplyDeleteAs for the suits, haba, i don't think i got the memo that rumply and wrinkly are in...repeat after me...Downy wrinkle releaser.
House of Ole ? Lol... I missed that.. that's too funny
ReplyDeletei have to agree with anon saying that some of the outfits look gay but they are not too outlandish for the fashion forward of the guys...on second thought maybe they are, I just pictured seeing a guy walking across lagos rocking the light blue overall/cape like thingy...he'll probably look like a cross between guru maraji and a masai warrior. but then again thats high fashion for u.
ReplyDeletethe suits(and some of the guys) are hot though along with the bogus ties!
Bella do you have any extra info concerning House of Ole? I am so feeling the ensemble.
ReplyDeleteHmm...nice!...LMAO @ Adaure...u r soooo wrong!...but some are a bit "much"..sha..
ReplyDeleteWow...............am really feeling this pixture expecially the guy in the blue suit. lol. Good job bella.
ReplyDeleteMen is suits. TOTAL WEAKNESS oh my gwad I'm tripping yo! lol!! I love the other ones too. but the suits damn damm daaamnn!... dddddddddddddddddddaaamn! lol! YES IT IS THAT SERIOUS lol!
ReplyDeleteI love the black kaftan, i think kaftan on guys is sooo sexy :) Ive been loving ur blog oh, i need to get those high waist ankara skirts. Thanks for asking after me :), im around, but swamped with work. Ill be back with more pics shortly. Have a good week!!
ReplyDeleteLMAO...the Guru Maharaji comment...
ReplyDeleteOkay, forget all those traditional outfits, they are absolutely gayish and does nothing for me in the least. I just can't imagine my man wearing any of them, no way!
ReplyDeletePlease, did anyone notice that the model on the left in the last two sets of pictures actually has a handbag? This is ridiculous! What have they turned our African men into in the name of fashion? Sisi? Lol....

ReplyDeletesorry mistakenly deleted my last comment.
ReplyDeletelol...it's not a hand bag, its most likely a MESSENGER bag, big difference :)
Bella I apologize on everyone's behalf for finishing these models/designers like this lol I guess the world is not ready for most of these designs
I really love the second outfit; Even though they should have featured more African designs/prints. I am not really down with the suits. Most especially on the first dude featured on House of Ole. The attire is undersize. They could have given him one his size.
ReplyDeleteThe models are not bunz either. They look too feminine. The Black dude featured next to the fair-skin dude looks scary. His hair resembles that of an electrocuted cat!
I like the House of Ole stuff.
ReplyDeleteSomething very interesting coming from these comments :outfits that look gay. What does that mean? Its very interesting
Hey, great pics and great blog!
ReplyDeleteThought you might be interested in an interview we did with the editor of HauTe

HOT! HOT!! HOT!!! HOT!!!! DEFINETELY HOT!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThe models I mean!! LOL
OK. Their suits are so cool!! I love them. already envisaging my man in those suits!!
@ Michele nniiiceee cover on Dammie. That was sweeet thanks!
ReplyDeleteI'm feeling these outfitters o! likey...not every1 can pull it of sha! nycceee....where are the designers from?
ReplyDeleteThe suits are nicely tailored and has more of an appeal. The first set of designers confusing. Particularly the long looking white embroidered Agbada? It does look very feminine and not something that I would like seen on my man. Maybe if the designer contrasted it with another layer of fabric underneath it would work. The model reminds me of a guy I dated, they look alike and honestly I would hate to see him in such attire. Interesting overall.
ReplyDeletehmm, I am really feeling these outfits.....not!!!
