So local !
YES OLA, AFRICAN, YORUBAISH!
why is it that we look down on our own culture? if westerners didnt hold their fashion in high esteem,they wouldnt be where they are today.The important thing is that he utilizes cultural elements and presents quality product #supportnaija
because we have internalized colonized mentality…..so unfortunate! Serious deconstructing is needed! We need to wake up fast!!!
this is not about looking down on anyone, if it was top notch we will give it that, did u see the photoshoot with rita dominic, genevive and kate henshaw? fierce. this one – thrash
what’s local about it? hope you are not the local one.
i love every bit of his designs! they are well tailored and very original!
lol@ Ola…

Why does susan peters look constipated, ok designs its just about the embroidery, D’Prince does it for me…I nor fit shout
love every bit ..but did i notice somethg wrong with Susan peters…this picture cropping n photoshopping did not do her justice.clothes are cool though
Susan peters will always be bashed where ever she shows face.. nice collections tho.
FREE D WOMAN JUH.
that alex guy is fyne sha……….
http://lucianochinwe.blogspot.com/
Is it just me or do their heads really look big? Please photoshop with caution. Nice designs by the way
its good to see susan peters. i dunno why people love bashing her, yh she insulted linda ikeji so what? big deal. all d people hating on her are just jealous of her BB porsche and bno im not ann asslicker, i just hate it when people hate unneccessarily it her money so she can buy whatever she likes with it. btw she looks nice.
They look good. Its not bad at all.
the photoshopping in Uti’s first picture and his pose with Susan Peters…..sorry.
uti is a great male model…
omg Alex is so sexy in the black, God my eyes have seen beauty-eye -gasm. Alex man you too fine. And yeah am glad Desmond lost weight, he looks better when he is slim
what’s up with the Susan’s waist and shoulders and Uti’s hips? There’s something wrong about the pictures. I think the photographer or whoever photoshopped the pictures didn’t do the collection any justice.
Susan Peters is the reason I decided to take a closer look… Her outfit looks gorg!!! I can see Me in that dress, which is why I love it. And I know I’d like to be in a pic w/ Uti… so I cant hate. I like just about everything, except Uti’s shoes. I just dont like the very long, sharp nosed shoes on guys… but that’s my personal taste.
lmao
looks nice, well tailored too.
keep hating Uti & Susan while they make their money! …..olukuu
@Mimi..LOLZ..pls no one is beefing, stop being sentimental mayb cos she is from ur state? i can also claim that state cos i was born and bred there, i am not bashing but doesn’t she truly look tacky in that dress?
..will look better on some1 with fuller hips..
Lol darling I’m sorry u r wrong, I’m from imo. state.
i waant Alex!!! too sessyyy
Uti pls go to dentist and work on your teeth,
Why should he go and work on his teeth? You are one of those who make people go under the the knife just to conform to people’s expectations. He looks good because he is made in God’s image. He is wonderfully made.
Yes, his teeth are really bad. I got an up close view of it when he was in Brooklyn last Nov 2011, I was in shock. Bracers are not that expensive and they have the invisible ones
fashionista per excellence brother to comic merchant…Celebrities Favourite Choice Bella gives us more of Kola Kuddus collection….Where is Muyiwa Osindero’s Clothsense?
not bad
What’s that on Yomi’s lips? Ororo?
lmao!! just what i was thinking
susan susan ur shoulders too high
@Uche – But I didn’t see any Smiling Uti’s pics here…..Where are the teeth that you want him to fix? Or are you another HATER? We are appreciating the clothes and not peoples’ faces or teeth.
abeg< leave susan be now, she looks absolutely lovely.
She does. This is her best pic of her, that I have seen.
Photo shot is just to much
Correction *Photo shop*
er….there is nothing “casual” about these. Looks like they’re auditioning for the next Bollywood star
lmao, u are so right………………….lol
These are so beautiful! Susan Peters is just okay but i like the guys outfits most, esp. the 6th pic (Uti Nwachukwu), the design is really cool. Can imagine my BF in that, will look drop dead gorgeous *winking
Not bad…. ♍ε̲̣ like the collections
Una dey vex for here oh! as for me , i like his designs.
Nice designs. Goodluck 2who eva is behind ds….
As 4 Uti Hating him is like a pill a take everytime I see him, its a free world so i gu?z I am allowd 2Like or Hate on any1 I choose n dt new hair style of his is not doing him any justice.
No comment on d Susan gal n her BB Porche abi Porsh wateva!
@Mimi,did u ve to bring that Susan’s bb gist here?msheeeeeew! U sound as razz as she does!
Erm. Miss posh I see u!! Its her money so she can do whatever she wants to do with it, i dont see how dat classifies as razz!
loving these outfits…have to get them for the Hubs.
Susan Peters’ makeup looks terrible and I don’t know what is on Uti Unachukwu’s head!!
Its called hair my dear…look it up!
@robinna ,its called (OSHUKA) …..this yomi boy looks like ZUDANICE..
lmao, u pple will not kill me o, oshuka, haven’t heard that word in ages
Very black n he’s wearing a black shade …nigerian fashion designer….una no just open eyez
haba@uche, yes uti dont have smiling teeth, better for him to remove that teeth that stop him of smiling oh, na wa 4 u why u dey poko nose for his teeth
Blimey! The designs are just perfect, fashion at its best. Fashion is the science of appearance. Keep it up dude!
all you haters hating on yomi’s design you are free to do so… i am sure because you guys are faceless thats why you feel you can hurl insults at people going about their personal business. Iam pretty sure most of you are just JOBLESS!
Who is shouting Alex there?dnt let Uti catch you o! Go find your own man pls o #nuffsaid
DEAD DEAD DEAD. LOL LOL LMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOO
wow! perfect clothes! perfect models/amabassadors and perfect photo quality…this is international standard! i love it!
Desmond pls give way for the new, you don old pass this levels….looking like he’s joined the Chinese tea girls in the industry now your head is too big.
Nice collections yomi casual..u always come out wit stylish nd fabulous creativity…thumbs up man! ..nd to all u peeps talkn nonsense here I tink u should go nd kiSs a python cos u r not in any way better dats why you r busy showing us hw pathetics ur life is by ur jobless act!!!..so sad 4 haters**mtshewww!
The problem with some Nigerians is that we don’t appreciate our own,80% of u Haters has never produced anything in your LIFE!,the only thing you are capable of producing is the air you breath in and out and even the air is free of charge from God….. Bad belle People!!!! Abegi Yomi casual,Uti,my sweet susan peters,alex and desmond elliot u guys rock big time! the truth is that Most of this arrogant haters are your biggest fan they re just too arrogant to admit that.OPEN BEEF!!
I see Susan Peter’s hand sans the BBPorshe has been photoshopped! Lol
I like the dress she has on though
The Uti pose with Susan Peter makes him look suspect
@amara ,this is a public site and every body has their own opnion ,so if u ve a problem wit the comments u can plz tell yomi to take iT off. All these busy body 4 1 cloth wen dem go dash u…..RUBBISH!!!!!!
@precious,who give u DR,hissi sure say nahi family pple dey cry 4 here …we re all free 2 sy wat ever we wanna say.
i like the embroidery and designs, and i can totally see myself wearing the dress modeled by Susan peters, thumbs up to the designer . But i must confess Uti looks like a evil magictian in the outfits, maybe its just me “shrug”

Beautiful collection, Wouldnt mind getting wat Uti is wearing for my BF and Susan Peters for myself. BTW, u guys shld jus chill. Its about Yomi Casual’s designs not ur dislike for Uti or Susan or the photographer’s photoshopping abilities. Good Job Yomi Casuals.
