Here are the best dressed ladies from tonight's awards
The red carpet was set alight by the host of gorgeous men and women who came to celebrate the African film industry. Dressed to the nines, they all came to make a lasting impression but there can only be a few who completely nailed it. Here are the best dressed ladies from tonight's awards.
Africa Magic Viewers' Choice Awards (AMVCA) is an annual accolade presented by Multichoice recognising outstanding achievement in television and film, voted on by the general public. The inaugural Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards ceremony was held in Lagos on 9 March 2013, and was broadcast live in more than 50 countries. 5 years later, the AMVCA has become one of the most coveted awards in the African film and television industry.
Quite possibly the most glamorous and ostentatious night on the Nigerian social calendar, the AMVCA is our equivalent of the Oscars and our celebrities always make sure that they dress accordingly. Even though everyone brings their A-game, only a select few make it onto the best dressed lists. From their hair, to their stunning gowns, to their accessories, these women stood out from the rest.
Take a look at why!
1. Dakore Akande
Dakore had the most interesting outfit of the night. This mixed-print dress is unlike anything we have seen before and we love it. The dress fit is absolutely perfect and that quirky butterfly detailing is a great final touch.
2. Meg Otanwa
Meg Meg Meg, how many times did we call your name? Meg looks stunning in this teal Ujuestlo gown. The style, the fit and that flash of thigh makes for a great combination. Meg definitely made sure all eyes were on her in that outfit. Great job!
3. Bisola Aiyeola
Bisola always looks fantastic. The actress and comedienne knows her style and what suits her and sticks with it. This blue looks stunning against her beautiful skin and we have to congratulate her on winning the Trailblazer award, very well-deserved.
4. Sharon Ooja
Nollywood's bright, young, thing Sharon Ooja brought something completely different to the red carpet this year. Sharon's green metallic dress was completely different but the whole look worked for the pretty actress. We wish she had done away with the bulky bag but everything else, we love!
5. Cee-c Nwadiora
Cee-C baby! Being the rumoured girlfriend of the brother of one of Nigeria's top designers definitely has its perks. Cee-C looks jaw-dropping in this red beaded Lanre Da Silva gown that fits her curvaceous body like a glove. Cee-C looks regal, elegant and worth a billion dollars at the same damn time!
5. Rita Dominic
We expect nothing but greatness from Rita Dominic and as usual, she did not dissapoint. The legendary actress looked every inch the veteran movie star she is in a blue column dress with dramatic puff detailiing. No unnecessary extra stuff, just a beautiful women in a beautiful, dress. What more could you want?!
