UGONNA OMERUO FEATURED IN BGM MAG...

Hse of Nwocha was featured in the oct/nov 2011 issue of the new BGM magazine. BGM is a brand new lifestyle magazine for african men, this is its second issue and its really amazing. Its a very interesting read especially if your at the airport waiting for a flight or your having a break between meetings. It has write ups on fashion, grooming, relationships, fittness, travel, politics etc, just name it they've got it. They also feature a very special woman as the venus of the month and guess what....... I was the venus for this issue. I had an interesting afternoon at the shoot and did a fun interview with the reporter. 


Hse of Nwocha
 Its difficult to explain to my family especially my Dad that its sometimes the printers that often spell my last name wrong. Omeruo NOT Umeruo but hey it still upsets him. not my fault at all lol.

LAGOS STYLE WEEK 2011


Lagos style week is a fashion event aimed at providing a stage for new and independent designers in a real authentic African look. With the lack of financial inspiration in the Nigerian fashion scene, the progress of emerging fashion designers are extremely limited and most designers face lots of challenges in order to match the success and exposure of  high fashion designers in Europe and South Africa. Lagos Style Week will be linking Nigeria’s best emerging designers with today’s top fashion buyers.

The show will be taking place at The Incubator Victoria island Oniru Estate, on the 26th and 27th of November and will display the works (10 design pieces) from 5 established and 20 emerging designers. The event will take place on Saturday 3 PM – 9 PM and Sunday 5 PM – 10:30 PM. The tickets cost N5,000 for regular (dinner ticket) and N10,000 (get to test drive a Porsche car for a day)  and each ticket entitles you to the pre-party, back stage, red carpet access and lots more. Dress code is for Saturday is Casual Wear/ Sleek Fashion Wear, while for Sunday, Evening Wear.


On the 16th of Nov the LSW team organized a photo shoot for the designers showing at the LSW on the 27th of nov and since Hse of Nwocha will be showcasing, I thought to bring u all a sneak peak of the main event and back stage shots from the shoot. My model for this shoot was Aisha Shaba, she is an upcoming actress and is one to watchout for, she is currently on the Tinsel cast on M-net so watch out for her on Tv.

RITA DOMINIC HOSTS THE 2011 HEADIES IN HSE OF NWOCHA

The 2011 Headies formerly known as the Hip Hop awards was held on the 22rd of Oct at the expo hall of the Eko hotel. It will definitely be on the list of the biggest shows to go down in lagos in 2011. This  however is my version of the glamorous Headies night.


Rita Dominic arriving in Hse of Nwocha
When I met Rita Dominic to discuss sketches and color for her dresses, she was nothing like what i had always seen in the movies, she was so calm, pleasant and adorable. She didn't keep me waiting for hours un end. She was rehearsing for her new movie, and once i arrived she excused herself and came over to chat with me. I kept smiling cos it was my first time at a location/movie set. To cut the long story short we agreed on designs, color and the fact that since she was hosting, she should pull all the stops in a red floor length evening dress! I had so much fun back stage and my able assistant caught some pictures. ENJOY!!!
