Prime Video premiers a new series based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s classic “The Lord of the Rings, The Rings of Power.”
There’s been a lot of global buzz surrounding this new series, with events around the world, such as a premiere in Mumbai and more recently in London and from what we hear, Africa is not being left out of the action.
Word has it that Prime Video will be hosting a series of Watch Parties with some of Africa’s biggest names in Nigeria and South Africa today, all happening at the same time. Now that’s a first!
Since GLAMCITYZ is all about fashion and looks, we’ve gotten inside scoop on what your favourite Naija celebs and influencers will be wearing for the night.
The Nigeria Watch Party will feature 6 hosts – Falz, Timini , Tobi Bakre, The Geng, Stephanie Coker & Real Warri Pikin.
The hosts sent out personal invitations to their friends. We got a sneak peek at the invitations and noticed an enclosed lookbook for each guest curated by the designer who will be styling the hosts.
We will also be sharing the style inspo for each celeb for the upcoming event. Let’s get right into it.
Imad Eduso for Real Warri Pikin
Launched in September 2015, Imad Eduso is a womenswear company based in Lagos. The brand’s aesthetic focuses on producing timeless looks with modern colours and trends to produce wearable items. Focusing on creating sophisticated, vibrant, and practical pieces for the modern woman. Loving this choice for the RealWarriPikin.
Emmy Kasbit for Falz The Bad Guy
Emmy Kasbit was founded by Emmanuel Okoro, a fiercely independent fashion designer. In his collection, Emmy Kasbit combines fabrics created by indigenous Nigerian weavers employing traditional West African techniques, together with bold, architectural silhouettes. The outcome is an amazing contrasting arrangement of strong lines, brilliant colours, and varied textures.

Emmanuel Goodnews, the creative lead behind budding streetwear brand and fashion label – Just Icon, and the official stylist of The Geng.
Goodnews is a young creative, stylist, and all-around fashion enthusiast, who oversees the fashion vertical for the brand, birthed by his drive for youth involvement, development and empowerment through skill acquisition. For the watch party, Goodnewx curated unique looks for each of The Geng members. Clearly, he is one to look out for.
