ALARA hosts supermodel for Art of Beauty signing in Lagos

Luxury retailer ALARA hosts Naomi Campbell and VIP guests in Lagos for the launch of her new book, Art of Beauty.

With canapés from Nok (EatDrinkLagos’ restaurant of the year) and event partners Veuve Clicquot keeping the champagne flowing, as Belvedere infused cocktails "Supermodel" and "The Naomi" fueled the rooftop afterparty, it was certainly a memorable night.

The evening kicked off with event compere Denola Grey welcoming guests, and fireside chat moderator Cuppy Otedola starting a conversation about the business of fashion between Reni Folawiyo and Ms Campbell. Naomi looked back on her spectacular modeling career, charity work with various humanitarian causes including the Mandela Children's Fund, her visit to Nigeria for ARISE Fashion Week, and meeting the Dream Catcher Kids of Ikorodu.

Thereafter was the signing of the two volume Art Collector’s Edition featuring acrylic bust cover by Allen Jones, signed photographic print by Paolo Roversi and Jean Paul Goude, and images by legendary photographers. The Art Editions which are sold out globally are now available exclusively on the continent at ALARA Lagos.

Reni Folawiyo, Founder of ALARA, said the event was a fitting conclusion to Naomi Campbell’s visit to Nigeria. “ALARA prides itself in being a cultural landmark in Africa where the highest level of creativity in a broad range of artistic endeavors are celebrated” she stated.
