In addition, the brand also participated in the Touch!, neoZone and Cloud Nine exhibition hosted by Pitti Immagine. All under the umbrella of creative development agency, StyleHouseFile’s Lagos Fashion and Design Week.
The output from all this activity has been fruitful.

The Jewel By Lisa brand is clearly a forward thinking, going-places, international brand. Mad props to Lisa Folawiyo and her JBL team. She’s putting Nigeria on the world map – for positive reasons! Bless! Xx

I love Jbl, but I remember vividly when she went on and on about Burberry stealing her prints but correct me if I’m wrong, but are those curvy/wavy hems not same as Stella Macartney summer 2012?????

There are high-end African-owned fashion houses, and then there’s Jewel by Lisa. Squarely in a league of their own. Do you need more evidence? Moda Operandi, Blackberry, Selfridges and L’Oreal in one year? I’ll drink to that.

You are deliberately missing the point. No one questioned the quality of jbl’s pr and marketing. It is stellar (mad props to Zara!!) they questioned the quality of the product because it doesn’t always live up to the hype.
But if you are really a die hard fan, why are you trying to restart negativity on a post that celebrates the brands achievements.

I’m very impressed but I also think the Model, photography and simplicity really sells this. Meaning she has direction from the Vogue people. Its cool really.
