The night of Sunday, July 30, had begun with 12 finalists who were painstakingly selected from about 300 hopefuls who turned up for the auditions on Saturday, July 29, 2017 at the Federal Palace Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos.
On the glitzy night of the finals, there were three stages. The first saw the 12 contestants strut in Abiola Oyesola’s designs, inspired by ancient Yoruba culture and created for the modern, urban woman.

At the second stage, there were just eight contestants left, each of them striding into the room in Aisha Bello’s glittery works which are created for the elegant, classy and confident women.
Three more contestants were eliminated later; the remaining contestants showcased Vogue Brazil-featured designer, Tokyo James’ works, after which there were just the last three girls standing and Daberechi got announced as the winner.
Congratulations to the model who gets a two-year contract with FEW models and a cash price of $2000!
