Banky W sets a record on the cover of Complete Fashion’s October 2014 Issue
There are many music artists in the Nigerian entertainment industry
today, but there aren’t a lot with great staying power. With that in
mind, we didn’t look too far before we found the ideal fit. We implored
the crown prince of African R&B, the lovable, handsome and total
gentleman Olubankole Wellington aka Banky W
(who is CF’s first cover star to appear twice – first appearance was
with media personality Adora Oleh in October 2010) in our ‘Bankable
Investment’, who after over 10years in the business, is still churning
out hits and getting better like fine wine.
Cover girl, the beautiful Ajoke Ogunlaja
is a wife, a mother of two, as well as a career driven woman with great
determination to make a change in Nigeria’s real estate industry.
Ajoke, is part of a company that builds homes for a living – CMB
Nigeria. Get down with her in this amazing chat as she gives an insight
into the different dimensions of her life, how she copes and how she
rose to the top in such a short space of time. Yes! A woman can have it
all, marriage, children and a great career all under 40.
Speaking of beauty, we have included Beauty Box (BB), from page 33, kicking off with Ghanaian actress Juliet Ibrahim,
in a swimsuit. Packed in Beauty Box are tutorials, news, health, an
interview with Yvonne ‘Vixen’ Ekwere, on how she achieves her gorgeous
red carpet looks and more. The men are not left out in this exciting
issue. Men, taking care of your body isn’t just a metro-sexual thing,
INVEST in having a great skin from today, you would always look good for
it, plus your women would thank you for it. With that in mind, check
out BB MAN, with 8 steps to ‘Achieving a healthy & handsome looking
skin’ and ‘After Shaves’ to buy before the year runs out at least.
Don’t miss CF’s interpretation of modern art in Complete Fashion extra
(Insert), with furniture artisan, Grant Quartermaine, and model
extraordinaire Aisha Bello (Isis Model Agency), bringing extra pizzazz
to beautiful wooden structures in WOOD MOOD. Each piece in this
collection was lovingly made with extra special attention given to the
curves, layers and design perfect for every stylish home.
