The venue was themed with floral arrangement décor – creating a magical garden theme, with a live grand pianist and of course a fashion show showcasing Iconic Invanity’s Autumn/Winter 2014 collection which was inspired by the 1950’s glamour in high society.

In a brief chat with BN Style, Nancy shed light on her new venture. Speaking on her reason for launching the store in such an upscale location and her next store location, she said “I decided to launch the stand-alone store in Banana Island so my clients who wanted a more private and personal shopping experience could attain one in an expressive ambiance of the brand feel.”

Well at the moment I’m at the beginning stage of working on my latest collection; and being inspired by women and their curves among other things. I’m always inspired by music and this will show in what comes next.

She later commented on starting her online store and Iconic Invanity’s future projects – “I’m always looking at ways to expand the brand so who knows what will be the next step. Online is a definite possibility.”

There will be another collection before the end of this year; and one thing I can guarantee those who love the brand is the continuance of creativity that will always be the focal point of what I do.”
