I will also like to see some of the work they have done for "regular clients" or their wardrobe styling and personal shopping portfolio. They would be great for the nigerian market and can add some creative edge that we desperately need in some areas of our fashion. A "what not to wear" styling show from these girls will be a show to watch. Bella naija abeg more info? I agree, I agree.

However I believe they offer other services from what I read in the article .i.e wardrobe consultant, image consultant. Personal shopping e.t.c the work shown on their website is obviously their high fashion portfolio as the tabs or links on their website clearly implies. Half the time if we actually take time to read or ask questions when things are unclear we will avoid sounding uninformed or illadvised. Hope this clarifies alot. :) I agree with your comment that their featured work doesn’t appeal to you or is meant for you (unless you are a size 2 high fashion model) skin color has nothing to do with it but more of a body type that wil look good in high fashion/coutour wear.

The Caucasian one? And pls spare me the "you are a hater" retort. Lacks creativity. As i was saying, sure the website features some nice styling concepts but it doesn't appeal to me. Maybe its because i am not their core demographic? Are they based in Nigeria? if not do they plan on working in Nigeria? Cause if i owned a fashion magazine in an African country and their portfolio is presented to me, i will not be hiring them to style a shoot. I wanna see what they can do with African bodies, not skinny white bodies. Ok…their work is nice but what demographic are they trying to appeal to? The Caucasian one?

What distinguishes one's sense of style is the whole clothing ensemble. No matter what happens you would always find two or more people with the same clothing item. This fashion case is prevalent if the outfit was bought from the same city or country. You must know this as well. If you observe the clothes celebrities have on, you would discover that most of them have worn the same outfit. From there people begin to deliberate on who wore it best.

It certianly didn't appeal to me, won't bother sharing my first thoughts when I read the name, but if some samples of their well put together work hadn't been included in the initial post, I wouldn't be clicking through to see the rest of what they had, based on the name alone. Many people associate poodles with being frou frou; personally I imagine tons of soft pink and bows when I hear poodle. At almost 30, that's not the image I'm looking to project with my clothing/accesories. Also, (more importantly) that's not what I see in their portfolio. The work they've shown is way more sultry/sexy & self assured than the name first implies. Of course I might not even be in their target market, so I'm probably taking panadol for their non-existent headache.

Some names are just bad. Trust me on this. My t-shirt line used to be called Barcelagos. I had to change it. The name was just plain awkward. Poodle Pusher is not exactly the best name. They need to go to a branding consultant and come up with a new name. I don’t think so. Some names are just bad. Trust me on this. My t-shirt line used to be called Barcelagos. I had to change it.
