Afropolitan Coming Through...

Afropolitan Collection Update

2009-11-10T23:51:00.004-05:00

Hi everybody!

It's already almost mid-November and I've been tight-lipped about the new collection but now I've got bitter-sweet news...

It's been pushed until further notice. I truly apologize to everyone. The preparation is taking so much more than expected and I'd like to make sure all grounds are covered before venturing out into something so big. I'm going back to my drawing board and getting things done better and I want to assure you all that it will be the best Afropolitan collection you ever saw! I'm researching in-depth, scrutinizing harder, working meticulously with extremely talented people in every aspect.

I'm still eager to show everyone what I can do and I'm very much excited for what's brewing. You all should be too! ;-)

Thank you all so much for the anticipation and support. It really does push me to go harder. Afropolitan still coming through!!!

The Afropolitan Collection

2009-08-24T19:36:00.026-04:00

I'm back blogging for the meantime as I am working on my most exciting project yet! First, I'll start by apologizing for leaving so rudely, I'll be more civil next time.

Right now I'm working on my Afropolitan Collection which will be released by late November, and will have some pieces on sale afterwards! *cartwheels*

This collection is inspired by the Afropolitans who Taiye Tuakli-Worsornu describes as:

"the newest generation of African emigrants, in the industrialised world. You'll
know them by a funny blend of London fashion, New York jargon, African ethics and academic success.
If nothing else, the Afropolitan knows that nothing is neatly black or white; that to 'be' anything is a matter of being sure of who you are uniquely."

(Read the rest here).

For me, the afropolitan woman is sophisticated, fun, conscious, strong, intelligent and unique! She knows what she wants and achieves her goals in life. There is some mystery to her as she always represents her African heritage in an unprecedented yet highly admirable way.

This collection does not only refer to the person who is of African descent, but to anyone who can relate to this successful multi-dimensional virtue. For a while, I have been trying to come up with images that convey compelling images of the afropolitan however, I believe the ultimate high will be in the final collection *goosebumps and faster heart rate*. These are some of my images I have come up with...

A series of pix I took a couple weeks ago... Shot by Ify Olu and directed by me.

Random shots I've taken of myself.

Ankara book covers made by 12-year old Debbie Madueke...

Sterre sunbathing in her dashiki-esque head wrap... I love!

I understand that fabric isn't the only representation of the afropolitan much less ankara. However this collection will feature mainly this material for reasons I'll explain later. For now I'm just letting the ankara whisk me into the land of inspirationo! Afropolitan coming through...

Les Bons Mots

2009-04-30T20:43:00.004-04:00

About a month ago, I was catching up on Fashion Week SS09 both in Milan and Paris and I stumbled upon some interesting lines from fave designers and attendees...

“ I love contradiction... for me, it’s where the truth really is”

Creative Director for YSL, Stefano Pilati, on his inspiration for collection

“I don’t just work for Fashion Week, I work for women. It’s really important to create pieces you wanna keep forever”
Stella McCartney on her ability to create pieces that women love time and time again.

“There is certainly a credit crunch but not a creative crunch”
John Galliano when asked about his eponymous haute couture collection.

Lastly, a convo about McQueen's collection, which was described as the 'most persuasive lesson in Fashion recycling [...]' as he reused old material like coke cans, tires and lamps to fabric from his previous collections to create an amazing & entertainig show!;
Tim Blanks: That could be the end of civilization
Linda Fargo (of Bergdorf Goodman): *gasp* Well that would be a pretty ending though, I would go out like that!

Neat stuff eh?

Bra or no?...maybe?

2009-04-06T18:13:00.012-04:00

Today's weather is wet and cold, no sunlight = sappy and blue... Perfect weather for me to throw on a Mack and a pair of Wellies, no make up, no cheerful smiles, just a pretty long face to go! But that wasn't even what made the day sad for me... I went out to run some errands and my body started itching. Usually it's much worse as my body itches so bad that I feel as if an army of ants are crawling all over me. I get so profane in my thoughts and the slightest glimpse of clutter I see leads me to tears ='( . There's this one commercial image of a dog sitting on a pile of snack bones that kills me when this happens... When will I find a solution? Sigh! *

***Trying to clear my mind out***

I was e-looking around and I realized that though not a new trend, some women are comfortable roaming clearly sans the baby food-holder... The Bra!

How do you lot feel about that move?

"Statement of Femininity"

"Attention seeking"

"Doesn’t even matter... Next!"

"That’s a no-no!" (If you understand Hausa, this wasn't pun-intended, I promise. LOL)

L-R: actress Zoe Kravitz is wearing one but for???; Rihanna; Uma Thurman

Aretha... Franklin....

I personally don’t fancy the visibly bra-less move. And then for some, their nips are just sooo invasive! I’m a firm believer in looking sexy yet keeping the nitty gritty details to a minimum. The universe does not have to know what your entire tatas look like. And really, the absolute least you can do is cover your nipples OR don't let the girls look like an overworked shopping bag...

PRC tomorrow... Can't wait!

2009-03-30T18:33:00.006-04:00

Tomorrow, the semi-final (I think) for Project Runway Canada will be airing and I can't wait. Honestly, I haven't been blown away by anyone on the show except for Sunny Fong who keeps delivering EVERYfriggin'TIME like he got no other option! He's exceptional!

Jessica Biffi, whom I love her bubbly personality so much, is arguably the second best (it's between her and Jason Myers, who got eliminated and came back). Jason and Genevieve came back on the show and kicked my fellow Nigerian, Adejoke out! I almost cried for her because it was one of her best works but she got the scissors because of Kim

(whose personality was depicted as very bitchy on the show). I was happy Kim left, but still felt sorry for her. Girl needed a hug!

Anyway, Rachel Roy was the guest judge last week. There was just something about her that used to scare me... I dunno... Maybe it was this collection, lol (which I actually loved but it reminded me of colonial times for some reason). But jokes aside, after this episode, she came across softer...still militant, still opinionated but softer... Now I just think she is a strong woman who knows what she wants...and I'm loving her! (I'm sure by now, you all can tell that I love strong women).

I tried embedding the video but it doesn't work so try THIS . RR had some insightful things to say.

Well, I can't believe I gave 2 posts in one day. Man, why can't life be this easy?! *sigh*

UPDATE: PRC Finale is next week instead.

muchos besos,

Dave

The Simmonseseses...

2009-03-30T16:13:00.012-04:00

There’s something subtly exciting about Angela’s look here. Possibly the best put-together look I’ve seen on her in ages and I’ll tell you why.

Here she’s almost going ‘sweet and simple’, which can be synonymous with ‘safe and boring’, but takes it up a notch by opting for the geometric sandals and structured top handle to tone down all that frilly-girliness going on in that dress. Also noteworthy, is the red hue boldly featured from the shoes and bag without being unnecessarily dramatic. I hope she didn’t think too hard on this one before coming out, because it’s looking right Angela!

Okay, she's no longer a Simmons but it's about Kimora’s top... I assume it's one of those tee captions that'd make any pregnant woman feel phat instead of fat??? Whatever the case, the whole idea is literally cute! =)

David

SEXY BODY PARTS: Foreheadsss

2009-03-25T19:50:00.004-04:00

Some beautiful females with prominent foreheads:

Clockwise: Rihanna; actress, Mena Suvari (American Pie); Iman; model, Lily Cole; actress, Christina Ricci; Tyra Banks; and Sade Adu

Clockwise: My part-time sis, Nkechi I-B; Me (hehe); Big sister, Mautin; the beautiful Cynthia O.

I used to be sooo conscious of mine as a child, and high school kids didn't make it any easier for me! Lol. I would ALWAYS cover it up until my school banned bangs. I promise, I thought I was going to die that day! I was not going to go back to school until my mother called on her friend and they gave my big sis and I a pep-talk for a couple hours (which didn't change much then, lol). But now, I'd do anything to pull my hair back!

After seeing such gorgeousness that big foreheads are responsible for, I can't believe some people still consider it a flaw. Puhleaseeee! As Cynthia above once commented, "Big, regal foreheads are the norm..." And in my self-serving bias mode, I approve! =)

David

She's bad and you know it!

2009-03-13T21:49:00.004-04:00

After the mini hiatus and much media frenzy about Rihanna, she finally came out. And she did so well. Ri-Ri looks bad azz and makes a statement, especially the hair. I'm sure she knows people are gonna hate it and that's very bold of her. She don't curr whanonayall say! lol. Talk about coming out strong. Love it! ;-)

EACH ONE

2009-03-11T16:11:00.003-04:00

Yesterday I was observing the bubbly downtown Toronto from the grimy-streetcar-point-of-view.

And I drew that;

In Toronto you come across people,

On Queen Street you come across individuals...

That being said, can you guess what district Queen Street is?

Love,

DAV!D

Party Up! =)

2009-03-09T01:53:00.011-04:00

When it comes to the party scene, I have to say dressing up is my favorite part! In Nigeria, where I'm from (especially in the Yoruba culture), partying is a lifestyle! We party almost to a fault! lol And for us, these are the elements that make a party a party :

1. Great food! Not only must there be food, it must be in abundance as well. Are you ki'ing me?! lol I think it's unfortunate that we don't have food in parties anymore, just drinks. lol

2. Scintillating music (the type that would provoke a paralyzed person to get up and dance!)

3. The clothes... You know that the issue of matching clothes with the shoes and bags (whether right or wrong, lol) is a very touchy one to Nigerian women!

Whatever the case, I can relate. Looking good is a MUST, whether it be jeans and tees. The last party my posse and I went for was NEPA. A much anticipated party organized by the Carleton University Nigerian Students Association (CUNSA), which is arguably the most active Nigerian association in Canada. It was sooo much fun! Red carpet, DAV!D, flashing lights, DAV!D, fab music, DAV!D, meeting amazing new people, DAV!D, DAV!D, DAV!D and so on!

I put together some flicks from the party that caught my eye... There were thousands of them to scheme through and heaven knows, I got tired! As per the fashion part, people looked good but I didn't see anything mind-blowing (except for the DAV!D look of course, lol)... Anyway, if you're wearing it well, you're wearing it well, iniit? Enjoy!

L-R: The lights on the dance floor; Glowing ice; African jewelry and mini champagne bottles included in the VIP packs; The backdrop (DAV!D is somewhere on there... Sweet eh?!) These were put together by the ladies of INEN Organized!

Ladies L-R: The INEN girls, Christal and Sterre (whose hair was so FIERCE!); The ankara triplets, Ifeoma, Ijeoma and Adeola; Adaeze-Flossy (she gets credit for altering the style of that dress to perfection)

The Men Clockwise: Mr. Gidilounge in his crisp vest; Donald M is working that red carpet! lol; Olumide B. did pink and red justice; Donald Ofik- Dude is a trendsetter, watch his space!; Jimi Bolu having too much fun in his dapper bowtie, definitely another trendsetter to look out for; Ikenna O. kept it simple and sweet in the cargo colors and boat shoes; Deji K. brought the heat in a leather blazer...

Random: Kwame and I (bottom left) reuniting after 4 years?; Kenny (top left) is gonna kill me but I love the way he's dancing in that pic. lol Overall, NEPA was loads of fun. Got me dancing in my full length dress and all...lol

On a closing note, my woman of the night: Miss Ify Olu... Donning a metallic custom DAV!D dress. She did look like molten lava... Tsssttt! I love the way she worked the entire look with the head wrap, thong flats and the DAV!D swagg to go. Work itttt!!! =)

Bisous,

DAV!D

I Usually Leave My Traumatizing Tales for Facebook but...

2009-02-10T18:35:00.005-05:00

...I almost died last night! I was laying on my couch, laptop on my tummy, probably catching up on theybf.com then suddenly! A FETCHING BUG FELL THROUGH THE VENT!!! Then came a relatively loud sound from the fall and then it scampered its way beneath the cushion VIA MY ELBOW!

*dead*

If you know me, you'll know that I'm usually animated. I dunno what I must've looked or sounded like screaming and flying off that couch in a microsecond! I think this is the bug but I'm not sure 'cause this one looks wayyyy smaller and redder! The one that dropped on me was greyyy and as big as my pinky finger.

It's almost 24 hours since it happened and I haven't smelt my couch! Now, I will say no to sitting near vents! Just what I needed to add to my 10-item phobia list. ;-(

After flushing this intruder down the toilet where it'll NEVER return, I'm reading that the thing is harmless. Sorry.

Project Runway Canada 2

2009-01-25T22:08:00.002-05:00

So the much anticipated PR Canada II starts on Tuesday and I'm well excited! The show is months late but at this point, I don't even mind. At least it's not cancelled! Phew!

I heard a Nigerian girl was in the show a long time ago and I'd been dying to find out who. Well here she is, Adejoke Taiwo. I wish I was the first to be on the show but I'm tres happy nonetheless. I hope she wins! You can watch her audition here as well...

Catch the show 22.00 ET, Tuesdays on GlobalTV. Let all the cutting and stabbing begin! Hehehe!

David

Firestarter, do you wanna set it off?!

2009-01-18T03:06:00.007-05:00

I think this was the most interesting thing I did with DAVID after school. I worked on a couple costumes for a music video by the Kings of the Revolution! Yay! It was fun working for my friend, Bolaji Kekere-Ekun (or K-E-X as his own Sasha Fierce,lol) who is a film director in Los Angeles. I had to conceptualize, sketch, and send them to him for approval or rejection (the rejection part wasn't cool) ;-)The first scene which starts at 1.00 shows the 1st outfit. It was inspired by a fairy but one brought to life by a mad scientist in a frigid environment (who K-E-X played).

Conceptualization + Finished design

Tafero's scene came second at 1.50 and portrayed a gladiator and a goddess. That outfit was inspired by a scene Bolaji sent to me from the Matrix III.

I looovvveee this dress! x

The Sage's scene was great too! Mo Coco Ninalowo played the oracle in the video. She looked STUNNING in DAVID! And may I just add that nous Canadiennes were rawking the video! (Tafero, Mo and DAVID... Yessss....)

And here is the grand video. Quite deep, I must say. I especially LOVE the end! Great work Kings of the Revolution! ;-)

Erm, here's a pic of one of the countless times my finger got busted sewing the hemp rope into those beautiful spirals on Mo's bust.

The things I do for love...Hmph!

xxx,
David

Is Anyone Still Here?!?!

2009-01-18T02:41:00.002-05:00

I hope so! Hello everybodayyy, I'm back!!! After being hounded by concerned folk, I have decided to blog again. I was M.I.A. for a while and didn't want to bore you all with gabs about everybody and everything else but DAVID. But I guess DAVID can share things that DAVID likes too right? So now I'll try and blog as often as I can!

Well, 2008 wasn't so boring after all. It ended on an amazing note. I was in London with the fam (and someone tell me why it so cold down there this time?! It even snowed! Eek!) I graduated from my undergrad; never went for the ceremony though. I did get a J-O-B last year. Yes, a full-time job but we won't go there. I worked on a couple things that I will talk as I blog more often (Can somebody say Firestarter?!) All in all, I am thankful for last year. It was the beginning of new and beautiful things to come! I hope everyone got into 2009 with great spirits and expectations. Okay, let's get to blogging...

Happy,

DAVID

I can't wait to resume blogging...

2009-01-13T19:04:00.002-05:00

...I miss you guys ♥

=(
David

Alright, this is what it is...

2008-06-11T20:42:00.003-04:00

I am temporarily off official DAVID matters for now. I'm just trying to finish this undergrad with some grace. It was a tough choice to make but I'm glad I finally made a decision, you know. I've got only a few months left for my undergrad but my entire life to work on DAVID.

BUT this isn't any goodbye. I hate goodbyes (except to bad rubbish)! I'll just probably not be posting a lot of DAVID related stuff for a while. I was also meant to put some really gorgeous accessories that were supposed to be hand-made by me but I guess that'll be my return gift to you all.

So hopefully I'll still be blogging almost not as weirdly as I have been doing lately. *We'll keep our fingers crossed for this one, hehe*

Thanks for all the support and love you DAVID-lovers have shown! You guys are truly the best!!!

Yours truly,
DAVID

I did it again...

2008-06-10T22:08:00.003-04:00

I will blog tomorrow. I realize people miss me (and I miss you all too). There's so much to talk about, yet nothing. We'll see how it goes after I hand in my paper. Me love those who love David!

Loads of kisses,
David

It's been a long time... I shouldn't have left you!

2008-05-16T04:39:00.008-04:00

The average blogger-cliche = 'Sorry I've been really busy and that's why I haven't blogged'

My excuse? None to be said. I just apologize! It's actually easier to just stay blogging than to vacay on your readers and come back begging. God help us!

Okay, there is a crap load to talk about on here and I'm not sure where to begin...

The freshest one yet is I just did a Project Catwalk Season 3 marathon! (currently 451am) All episodes in one stretch! Oh lawddd!!! I was aching for Jasper to win anyways OR Ross. Those were the bad boys of the season. Jasper was just pure genius from scratch, so he won unsurprisingly! Ross didn't make it to the top three (or free as my Brits say it) but he had some deep architectural influences running through his veins. The runner up Miss Chelsea Oliver was also pretty good. She's only my age and she sews up a storm! I have to say this season had wayyy more talent than the last. The previous one sucked major! And to add to that, Jasper and Chelsea are Canadians!!! Yayyy!!! Nous Canadiennes 'rock'! *cheesing*
BLUE STREAKS. Guess who's rocking blue hues in their hair?

I know it's kinda stale at the moment but it's Marc Jacobs! Pretty much the most notorious and one of the most creative contemporary designers! The current brain behind Louis Vuitton definitely looks younger and reminds me of....

You got that right>>> DAV!D

Heck yeah! I'm digging that on Dave too!

(Oh and Marc and I have also got the same ear-piercing arrangements! heehee)

Then there is my current obsession with the Food Network. My next collection will probably look as interesting as curly parsley leaves, raw as rare steak and tasty as gruyere cheese!

As a matter of fact, I have crushes on Jamie Oliver and Gordon Ramsay! And to think Mr. Ramsay was in town and I didn't go see him is ridiculous! The things I don't do sometimes! For real, a man that can throw down is definitely a PLUS for me. So yeah, we'll be making more references to Food Network because that ain't ever going nowhere!!!

I'm not aiming to be a chef or anything but I'm learning a true appreciation for good food. I'd LOVE to go on a food tour some time in my life and I think my 1st stop would be Chicago, IL. I hear they got great food there. You see, it's not really about the 200-star restaurants but really the soul behind the food. So I can go to NY to look for the best street-hot dogs ever and still go to Japan to have the best sushi. It's all in good faith. I even got this little hypothesis I'm working on that:

Good Food+ Good Music+ Good Friends= Good Life

So next time I say ''Welcome to the good life'', you know exactly what I mean. =)

I have to upload pix soon of some things Food Channel has taught us with regards to plating, flavours, creativity, and just basically the art of eating. Yes, eating is an art and thankfully one we can ALL enjoy!

So good music... I've been listening to Kirk Franklin's new album for about 2 weeks now. AWESOME. Dude is BLESSED! Nigerian music is the business right now especially Wande Coal, 9ice and Asa (pronounced Asha). So if you're craving Nigerian music, GidiLounge is the new hang-out spot.

I guess that's the round up for now. I'll come back with more as soon as I can articulate my thoughts (I don't know who asked me to take this hiatus).

xxx,

Dav!d

I haven't abandoned my blog...

2008-04-18T20:01:00.001-04:00

Please bear with me. Dave will be right back!

xoxo,
Dav!d

ADD

2008-03-19T02:29:00.006-04:00

Why is it that many creative minds, especially fashionistas, cannot concentrate on one thing for long??? It's as if they have ADD or something! It's funny but sooo common! I was just talking to one who I called multi-talented because he sings, raps, makes films, writes and dresses dapper! But he responded with 'lack of concentration'! In fact, there is one (currently trying to incorporate 100 necklines into 1 flapper dress) in my living room right now. lol

I won't even start pointing fingers here because I am very much easily distracted too. I find it challenging to focus on one thing. What's ironic though, is I need distraction to focus! Yes, I need to refuse distraction literally otherwise I'll go looking for it. Is it a bad thing though? I think not! It does help some stay sane. Imagine if you had only a handful of things you wanted to do? Fewer options, less opportunities to adventure, less RISKS, low adrenaline levels? No FUN! Besides life isn't an exact science like Math, it's way more unpredictable just like the artsy mind is. And truly, that's the beauty of life. So for all larger-than-life, aesthetically inclined, fun-loving, whimsical-minded folks out there, rock on! We run this!

On another note, a DAV!D appreciator made a beautiful slideshow and I'd like to share! The video is so pretty, like a movie trailer indeed =). His name is Zach O. Check some of his work here... Another multi-talented fella!

Have a happy, happy easter!!

xXx,

DAV!D

IReallyWantToHaveAConversationWithThisWoman

2008-03-13T11:10:00.011-04:00

Because I'd love to know how she's aged in a different direction from most of her JCrew and Naturalizer peers...

I mean, there is something more to this woman's look than meets the eye. The personality within screams louder than the clothes. Yes! Her look is nothing short of interesting; starting from the conspicuous colors, to the overdone mixture of different patterns (I say her jacket looks like the curtains we had when I was 3), to the blue lox...
...BUT look at her pursed lips... It's like something calmingly-witty is going through her head. It does seem like she's cognizant and also very in sync with herself (observe the way she clutches that umbrella or whatever it is... very assuring!) Ironically, when she expresses it, it only translates as the opposite, hence the masquerade-esque appearance!
The image was lifted from the Sart btw...

I've also been thinking; if I keep my blue tresses, will they look like hers when I'm her age?

My 1st Collection... (I hate Firefox)

2008-03-08T23:15:00.027-05:00

I need to make a DAVID lookbook so everyone can have instant access to stuff I've made. Anyway, here is my very first collection. Some clothes were about to turn me into an overnight couturier. Others got me kicking and crying for earth to just swallow me! But I have to say that I can look back in retrospect, smile and say, 'It was good...'

The Denims:

The GQ Mac Collection:

The Extras:

The Designer + 6'5'' tall model!

Okay, she's 5'11'' + 6" inch heels! Dang!

So, there you go people! Thanks for all the support & love! =)
Thanks again Queen for rawking the shoot!

Yours truly,
Grown+Sexy Dave...lol

Finally we can see DAV!D at the HUASA Show 2008!

2008-03-06T20:38:00.007-05:00

Inspired by various things, this collection, Rouge Noir (named after the Chanel lipstick that I love so much now), is eclectic with different kinds of fabrics and textures to represent the richness in individualities, talents, looks of Africans, especially those in the diaspora.

I usually go from design to fabric but this time I reversed the process to see where it'll lead me. And where to? I feel like I was led to a place of 'power, determination and inherent royalty'.

I even took on a bigger challenge to go for deeper and duller prints as opposed to the bright and vibrant colors everywhere, so I could push my design buttons even more. Even with all the distracting Java and Woodin prints out there, I thought I'd focus more on what I'm here for- creating innovative, timeless pieces.

To say I have no regrets at all with this collection would be a litote. Rather, I LOVE this collection with ALL my heart! I only would have wished for impeccable sartorial skills so that those kick-ass drawings in my sketchbook would have been a reality for sure. I can only hope that I'll be sewing as good as Todd Lynn one day; that would be the DAY!

That being said, I put a slideshow of the collection below so I don't have to upload too many pix on here. Let me know your favorite looks. Enjoy!

PS:I haven't spoken to my mum since the show and I feel terrible. She's DAV!D's biggest fan! =(

As you can tell...

2008-02-26T21:12:00.005-05:00

... I can now use colour on my blog!

Therefore I will make this post one heckuvah rainbow!

Actually, I'm going back to work now.

(Thank you to those who tried to show me how and to the one that succeeded)

It's Dayvvvvvvvvviiiiiiiddddd!!!! lol

Things I've e-collected along the way...

2008-02-25T11:00:00.011-05:00

1. Someone recommended this blog Stuff White People Like to me. HILARIOUS! I mean, it's even funnier to me because I find that white people don't make jest of themselves as much! Truly your sides will definitely ache from this one! Here's one of my fave posts on the blog. Kudos to the author.
DISCLAIMER: I haven't read the entire blog but I assume it's not racist from the few posts I've gone through. If you feel otherwise and can prove it, I'll take it down. Thank you.

2. The web site for FashionAfrica is officially out! WHAT! It is REALLY nice, as in, REALLY REALLY hot! And it's not just the layout. It really does have content; designer, artist and model profiles, events, what not? Just dope! The ingenious mind behind this movement be doing big thangz! Again Dammie, marry me! How many times do I have to propose?

3. I have had the bestest-worstest weekend ever! And I have eaten enough fried plantains to feed an army. I am wrapping up my new collection. 15 unforgettable pieces and some for plus sized too. Nigerian traditional wear is SO not boring, thank you!

I love you all!
DAV!D
