31st AUGUST 2019 IN THE CITY OF LAGOS WAS A BLAST AND FUNFAIR AS MYKMARY FASHION SHOW 2019, A LONG AWAITED SHOW FINALLY BECAME A LIVE RECORDED AND UNFORGETTABLE HISTORY WHERE LOTS OF ENTERTAINERS WERE PRESENCE. FOLLOWING THE SUCCESS OF MYKMARY FASHION SHOW 2019 RECENTLY HELD, MICHAEL, A CO- FOUNDER UNVEILS AND HIGHLIGHTED THE SPOTLIGHT OF THEIR ACHIEVEMENT AND HOW IT STARTED IN HIS INTERVIEW EXCERPT.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE YOU TO PLAIN AND ORGANISE THIS 2019 FASHION SHOW?
It took us 3 years to go into planning and executes Mykmary Fashion Show 2019. And we thank God it came out with huge success.
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE TO PUT THIS SHOW TOGETHER AT THIS PRESENT TIME?
We discovered that Nigeria the sector in Nigeria is so wild that so many aspect has not been practice and put in place. So, our fashion shows not only to have a fashion line but also to create a fashion platform in terms of Fashion Designers, Modelling Agency, Fashion Journalist, Media Crew, Cosmetics, etc, from Nigeria/Indegenous to International market
WHAT INSPIRES YOU TO ORGANISE THIS FASHION SHOW AT THIS PRESENT TIME?
When it comes to our inspiration to organize this Fashion Show, it still boils down to what I said earlier that there are lots of talent in the fashion sector that needs to be seen, there are bigger markets to reach…so we hope to bridge the gap between the average Nigerian fashion designer and the international market.
SO, WHO IS THE BRAIN BEHIND MYKMARY FASHION SHOW?
There are two people behind MykMary fashion house; Michael and Mary Onyema.
WHO ARE YOUR TARGET MARKET OR TARGET AUDIENCE?
We are targeting the upcoming fashion designers, not those that have already made a name. We are targeting the average Nigerian fashion designer to showcase them to the international market.
HOW HAS IT BEEN DEALING WITH SUPPORT OR CHALLENGES THAT COMES WITH SOCIETY’S PERCEPTION OF FASHION?
Well, the thing is this, when you’re coming out with a new idea, people tend to look at you from afar. They want to see how far you can go, both corporate bodies and individual, they watch you from a distance. They want to see if you can achieve something, but by the time they see limelight, they want to be parr of it. Like what you see here today, its the 1st edition. You can imagine what the next edition will be like. We had to be focused, despite the fact that a lot of designers and corporate houses were watching from a distance.
WHERE DO YOU SEE MYKMARY FASHION SHOW IN THE NEXT 5 YEARS?
As our slogan says ” …projecting Nigerian fashion designer to the international market”. Our projection is that 5 years from now, we want to have 50% of Nigerian fashion designers will be on the international platform through MykMary fashion show, MykMary fashion party, MykMary fashion exhibition, MykMary fashion conference, or MykMary master class. We would have also achieved the MykMary fashion awards.
