Front Rowers like Sacha Okon, Afua Rida, and others were given special treats by SandboxBC and the brand encouraged all attendees to dress up for the feel of a live fashion show.
The show started with a live DJ session, followed by mini-interviews on Instagram Live for the Red Carpet. Maame Adjei hosted this segment and featured fashion players like Elaine Mensah and Omoyemi Akerele.

In some of the pieces, Christie Brown used Ankara and Adire fabrics to form batiks with handcrafted embroidery which brought out the silhouettes.
The brand also used gold and silver plissé lamé in different shapes.

The Christie Brown collection is not the only of its kind making waves this season, we also have Funke Adepoju’s New Collection, Emotions.
