At the 2013 Academy Awards (Oscars) which took place yesterday Sunday 24th February 2013 in California, BellaNaija Style spotted US based Nigerian fashion stockist and blogger Folake Kuye Huntoon of Style Pantry in a green dress by Jewel by Lisa.
The high neck short sleeve print dress by the Nigerian design label was displayed at the 2012 MTN Lagos Fashion & Design Week in October 2012. Folake styled her dress which features a thigh-high slit with diamond drop earrings, a silver belt to accentuate her waist and a pair of yellow ankle strap heels.
Her look was completed with smoky eyes and an afro.

This is !oveky and Folake rockeddd it..#ThumbsUp
She looks very nice

On her, the dress is way too long. It looks tacky. Much better on the runway. I feel they should have closed the slit for her because not all legs can pull off the side slit.
The hair style doesnt complement the outfit either.
I love the dress and agree with you. I think its wrong choice of shoe. She always looks beautiful but I dont think she looks amazing in this one im afraid.
Oh, the style pantry is Nigerian? She is wearing the heck out that dress. She looks hot.
ilike!
Love eeeeet.. Very modern, edgy and chic
Love, Love, Love this dress!
Head to toe perfection
I LOVE THAT DRESS!! Folake has always held it down in the hair and dress department
Never knew she is a nigerian. She looks more like Kenyan or Eritrean. She looks stunning in that dress! Keep it up girl!
Good!
The way it softly drapes down onto the red carpet…beautiful.
She looks Beautiful Btw I love dt Hair..I’m roking dt Same Hair now
tmi tho!

She really rocked that dress….

I love the pairing of the shoes with the dress. So unexpected yet funky! She looks nice!

good looking girl
i luv luv folake but this one didnt work for me. she always holds down but am afriad she disappointed me this time. i was sooo looking forward to her debut on e oscar red carpet
She looks lovely! Does anyone know what hair extensions she’s used please?
That’s her real hair. She always rocks her natural hair. By the way, Folake, I love everything except the shoes. However, everyone is entitled to their own abi?
Wow. I now have my inspiration. Thank you
its not her real hair. its done really well. she wears a full head of weave.look closely
thats her real hair
OMG! She’s my friend, Funmi Kuye’s sister. Small world. Beautiful from head to toe!
Thank God she is Ur friend….tell her not to wear that dress to another event cos it didn’t week abeg….she is a beauiful girl….she just disgraced us like omotola did…then the shoes are just a wrong number
The dress photographed better on the model.I also think Folake should have paired it with some metallic heels. The shoes ruined the look for me.
A tad bit too long, prefer d runway chic
Yay she’s ur friend PGA let’s pop champagne for u gets! #wink!
hey bellanaija,ur here……nigeria’s name is being dragged all over american blogs,its not even funny. u remember when jay z and beyonce was in naija somewhere 2006?? well they’re saying there has been some documents out showing that the money paid to them came from a fund meant for the poor/poverty stricken folks in bayelsa state which was then governed by now president goodluck jonathan…..im from Ghana but comments coming from these americans over the article are soo ugly and disrespectful,i thought to hint u on it,check out mediatakeout.com sandrarose.com saharareporters 4umf and more…..in case u report it,credit me hahahahahaha
She rocked it better than the model..
She looks very nice. So happy to see her on the red carpet. I am not feeling those shoes though….
I usually like Folake’s style but DAMN that runway chick killed it!!! She had the height and legs for the dress. On Folake it’s too long and her shoes were kind of a poor choice IMO.
Spotted, e ma tan ra yin…..all per-arranged wise up
Nice!haters back off
Is that hg her hair for real?..i like the dress but not on her,shes too short for this look.
its not her real hair. its done really well. she wears a full head of weave.look closely
Looks too casual for the oscars
check her blog for better pictures of the dress…
Horrible dress to me…wouldn’t rock even if I was paid to….
one word
Solange.

very niceeee
I like the dress but it’s too long on her. Not feeling the choice of shoes. Cuts off her leg and makes it look shorter. I like everything else. Good choice.

lovely dress by JBL, but a tad too long for the lady. Perhaps darker and higher shoes would have made it work better. Pretty face, wish she held that hair or straightened it. Still happy for nigerians making strides.
Love the dress, just wish she’d held up her hair so we could see her pretty face a little more…. Plus I think I’d have gone for duller coloured; the dress is bright enough.
Duller coloured shoes…
