The inaugural All Things Ankara Ball goes down this Saturday with the apt slogan “Come Dry, Leave Wet.” In other words, the hope is for guests to come dressed to the nines in luxurious Ankara print-inspired formal wear and then proceed to work up a sweat while breaking it down all night long.

The phrase actually comes from Fear & Fancy, a social club co-founded by Jidenna of “Classic Man” fame. He and Nigerian-American model Jessica Chibueze are a few of the special guests who will be honored as Ambassadors at the Nigerian Renaissance-themed event this weekend in Maryland. Nigeria’s 55 years of independence will also be celebrated throughout the evening.

Founded by Nikki Billie Jean, All Things Ankara describes itself as both the premiere destination for all things related to Ankara print fashion, as well as an international movement led by creatives and enthusiasts who incorporate those fashions in their work.

“Our goal with this theme is to display, expose and educate the public and the world to the rich culture of a Nigerian Renaissance man and woman though illuminating Ankara print fashion and vibrant craftsmanship,” said the event press release.

To purchase tickets for the ball and to learn more information about the event, visit the All Things Ankara website. And, while you’re at it, check out the dazzling video and photography from the All Things Ankara Ball campaign below.

In a recent CHAT with Punch, popular Nollywood actress, Ebube Nwagbo has revealed that her hips are her greatest bodily asset.


In her words: “My greatest asset should be my body. My hip is my greatest body asset.”
The Anambra-born actress went on to speak about her style and what kind of fashion she’s into.
“My style is very classic, simple and daring. It has also evolved over the years. I wouldn’t be caught wearing loud colours or a matchy outfit because it is not my style. My favourite fashion accessory is my sunglass and I can’t do without it. I love it because it compliments and completes even the simplest look. I hardly wear make-up, so, my sunglasses serve as a protection of some sort for my face. It also shields my face away from prying eyes. Those are some of the reasons why I consider it to be my favourite accessory.”


Ebube is one of the many Actresses in Nollywood that has style and is highly fashionable. She is the CEO of Posh-Hair. Other stylist Nollywood actresses in her cliq include Rukky Sanda, and Oge Okoye.
