Davido, the Afrobeats star, has appeared on the runway at 2024 Lagos Fashion Week.
The five-day African fashion ceremony, which began on October 23, features panel discussions on global economics and marketing for African fashion entrepreneurs.
This year’s event boasts facilitators from diverse fields, including education, technology, trading, and the global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
On Thursday night, Davido walked the runway for renowned designer Ugo Monye, donning an all-brown regalia fabric. His kingly outfit included red-plated beads around his neck, a staff, and a chocolate-colored cap.
The audience cheered as Davido walked the stage twice, unveiling Ugo Monye’s face on his second walk.
