Florence Ita Giwa
Yesterday, BN brought you exclusive photos of Nollywood stars strutting the runway at Florence Ita Giwa‘s Foundation for Children of Bakassi Charity event tagged The Red Ball on Sunday 23rd September 2012 at the Eko Hotel & Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos.
Now, it’s time for all the red carpet photos. In line with the theme “The Red Ball”, some of the attendees came in their stylish red hot ensembles including Nollywood star, Rita Dominic, who arrived in a sequined darker shade of red frock with a plunging neckline. She accessorized her look with blue earrings and clutch bag and a Diana Ross look-alike hair do. Other must see looks of the night include veteran actress, Joke Silva in a purple Indian inspired outfit, Funke Akindele-Oloyede in a black LBD, which showed off her silhouette shutting down rumors that the Jenifa star is expecting her first child as well as Tinsel star, Iretiola Doyle in a pink floor length gown with silver sequins.
For the gents, superstar comedians, Ali Baba and Basketmouth and music stars, Timi Dakolo and 2Face Idibia are the ones to look out for, showing up in fitted dapper suits. Check out all the photos exclusively on BN!

I love Tiwa’s dress. Heard her performance was amazing
Abegi wat is with UTI and ALEX in every event………..are they that jobless pls BN do something about it……….their face is becoming tirin
Tnk God iyanya is properly dressed’ lolzzz
Am so getting tired of Genevieve Nnaji! Your not a runway model< deal with it!
Neither are any other of the Nollywood stars on the runway!!! it is a concept, you too deal with it, schewzzz!!!!
Biko stop hating and have a seat! All the other people on the runway, are they runway models? btw, its “You’re” not “Your”
Nene Biko 5 claps for you my sister. All these Genevieve haters need to just gerrout! Is it because she is a natural beauty that people will be talking rubbish about she is not a runway model, fact is Genny always has an always will be number 1, don’t you see that she was given the best dress out of everyone to wear??? Biko just chill on all your negative talk, Genny is the hottest around point blank period!
lol but versence i see none of them on the runway.I think u shld have said this on the last post eve tho i agree with u
Versence love she has to deal with it o ehehehehN.The B reader screamn hater if versence was hatin BN wouldnt have posted her comment but BN knew it was her opinion so respect that!
Not hating but I think Versence has a point. I’ve noticed Genevieve tries too hard to pull of a run way model “thingy”
genevieve is such a beautiful successful elegant woman with mouthwatering deals and ogbomga talent. the rest talk una they talk no get weight.
gan slp jor. hater mtsheeeeeeeeew.
please shut up…did she tell u she is a runway model? or do u see her trying to be one? she only honoured an event that she was called for so pls close dat hole in ur face….thank you
Hot mess! The only outfit that stood out was the lady with the black pants.

Emmy enyiocha – rangers avenue B-)
Kudos Iyanya…..Now this looks good
uti and alex here again …sigh*** wish we could comment each photo sigh…some outfits horrible ….
Rita Dominic should note that dresses like that are for ladies with no busts. Fashion police will even stress that. What she has exposed is not flattering at all. Less is always more!
Rita looks amazeballs.CLASS!!

Confused window treatment

She must have dreamed of becoming a ballerina in her former life.

90% of the people here are overdone and over the top. Tiwa Savage is my fave. Less is more people! SMH…
Dear BN, I’m honestly not being cheeky but please note that if you title a post as “Red Carpet Fab”, I have raised expectations when I click with a hope of being presented with fabness.
Otherwise, it’s just misleading.
Rita Dominic is so Gorgeous.Muah!
Please what is princess latifat wearing? Isn’t she meant to be a fashion role model
Thanks
@annie u must be blind because u obviously can’t see the curves on Rita! Yes she may not be voluptuously curvy but girl’s got curves and it’s cute and sexy and fits her body type
Oh does that make me blind? am sorry o.Girl pls take several sits at mamabakassi’s ball
Rita Dominic looks fantastic! Haters go and hug transformer
Emeka Enyiocha..damn!!..been a while guess u been hunting down poachers in kalahari game reserve!!..see u still in work mode!!
Rita my sweetheart
Nice to see our Nollywood stars together
Please is Rita Dominic aging backwards? She just looks really good! Wetin
but why on earth is Shan George wearing glasses inside??
rita dominic wouldn’t have worn that dress, it makes her breast look saggy! what do u all think
@mel, my tot as well
rita dominic’s cleavage no make am!!Wetin be dat
So there are no others shoulder bags apart from this Chanel bags. Niga sure knows how to bastardize fashion.
Charities that the society wont see the benefits. Charities that people are still dying and starving in Nigeria, Charities that there are still no affordable educational plans. Charities that there are still thousands of people who can’t afford proper health care, but would rather self medicate on pills they know nothing about its dangerous side effects. Keep celebrating poverty and wretchedness. I wonder how she would defend and comment about the status of Nigeria in an international interview. After all, an individual is a product of his or her environment. I could care less on the best and the worst dressed…..
I totally agree with you.
BN and overhype sha! The pictures were all over blogville so I don’t know what you mean by exclusive photos of the runway. I know you won’t post my comment but at least I’ve passed it across and you’ve read it. Shikena!!
@Mel, i dont agree with you. Rita Dominic looks a million box in that outfit. Head to Toe…..amazing. Best dressed Nominee for me.
At the end of the day, haters wil still be haters, pourig their criticism in their own miserable way… and our Stars will be getting richer by the day….I so much love them…
we definitely need fashion police in naij mehn….what are they wearing? #itburns my eyes that is
on point with that……it offends my eyes. there’s just toomuch material/cloth wasted, sweeping the floor (and there are people with no clothes o).
i just love annie simple baby face look, plus the dress suit her much………………………..BEAUTIFUL
@mel<<<< I tink rita domin's breast is looking great in dat Dress sheis wearing,and every other people Are looking amazing.
Where did Emeka Enyiocha thin he was going? kmt… Ninja Turtle oshi
good to see Tiwa has started dressx her age.she looked fab!
Rita Rita Rita oooooo baby Mmadum take this kisss muah breast looks great. Joke Silva looking fantabulous. Nice event
Okay, having looked through the pictures, the photographer is bad. He/She does not know how to feel the person being photographed. Everybody has an angle and everyone can look like themselves. I saw a lot of hither tither in these pictures. Photography is an art and not for everyone. Yes, the folks could have been super pretty but then everyone isnt, right? Still falls on the laps of the photographer.
Emeka Enyoicha…Warisdat??
Rita D…Ur chest is bare, not flattering at all
Tiwa…u are my best dressed!!
All u people calling others haters, u’re just very inexperienced. Bcos someone sees sthing from a different light does not make them haters, most times its a fact, and that is exactly what these so called celebrities need to hear – the truth!
Rita Dominic looks really great! Or you want a robust boobs to make her sexy? please come off it
I like the way Rita dressed and look. She is appreciating & working with her NOW. She is looking very urbane to me after all when nature calls you must answer. As for them haters let them express themselves, as its their own opinion. Never forget that haters must hate bcos it is their calling and they also must answer…….GBAM!!
Rita Dominic, the lady that NEVER tries hard to be fierce. I can remember the day i saw her in my Church at VGC, I almost dropped dead! she looked like an angel in her white overall……WOW!!
Ok! I am not one to comment on what people wear as such, however Emeka Enyiocha are you for real!!! You must be kidding me.
Rita and Mrs. Joke Silva look absolutely divine. Who is that chick that dressed like a Vegas show girl with all those feathers? smh
@Mel, u r so right.my exact thoughts. not flattering at all
Annie Idibia and Tiwa both look lovely
Is Sammie Okposo’s wife preggie? I hope that is what is behind the weight gain!
The ratchetness… Apart from a handful of people who obviously didn’t get the memo that the dress code was “come in your best ratchet attire” the red carpet was a huge, blistering hot mess!
Genny is lovely, Tiwa is Lovelier and Uti and Alex are just exhausting!
tiwa looks fab!
Versence stop hating o.Genevieve always looks on point!
Rita Dominic’s dress by Ejiro Amos Tafiri. Fabric from Designers’ Muse!
Looks fun!

There’s something about Rita’s look, she does look good but slightly different. Either it’s her make up n new hairdo or she did something to her face.
Emeka enyiocha, dis ur SAMANKWE look get as e be.
Ashirigbakaute.blogspot.com
Olisa Should retire that waistcoat.
@versence please shut up…did she tell u she is a runway model? or do u see her trying to be one? she only honoured an event that she was called for so pls close dat hole in ur face….thank you
I really like what is on display nice work people
http://www.mykokoradio.com/
i think annie macaulay is the best here, she looks absolutely amazing!!!
i think Rita Dominic looks the hawtest!!!
No wonder I haven’t seen Emeka Enyiocha in any movies lately. He’s now a game park ranger
for a change, annie mac-idibia got it right, we thank thee, plus funke oloyede’s dress is flattering!! same Chanel purse ladies? talk about over flogging. nigerians r clowns! some of these outfits are ridiculous. but really some faces i am so so so sick of seeing @ every event. we need new stars. just saying…
Rita Dominic looks like she put on weight and that hair is all wrong!!
3 things and I’m out. First of all, does my sweet Rita look like she gained a few or is she preggo (she’s still beautiful), Second, can someone please explain to me WTF Emeka Enyiocha is wearing?? Looking like a stuffed potato with that ridiculous belt, Fashio tip Emy: take the darn belt off ur stomach, tuck in the shirt and maybe, just maybe u could put that belt around ur waist..10x better than wat he has on even tho im not crazy bout the outfit in general. Thirdly, I dont even know who Vivian Oputa is but she gets my vote for best dressed..simple and elegant.
Honorable mention goes to the lady with those hideous ruffles at the bottom of her dress…unless ur performing at the Calabar festival/parade or the Igbo Yam festival, u should not be dressed like that. Ok bye BN! Much love! xoxo
This is NOT as bad as what we’ve seen on Bella. The fashion was manageable. Annie Idibia is a pretty lady, I love her natural look that she wears. Can somebody please find out if Gbenro Ajibade is single?
