My name is BiDemi Oke, I’m a New York based Nigerian Fashion Icon, and people know me as Princess Demi. My company’s name is Princess Demi Fashions Nig LMT; under which you see Forever Young Boutique, Fashion Buzz, and Demi Jewellery. I started my clothing line in Feb of 2009, but my jewellery line of cause started December of 2011. I have branches in Sagamu and Lagos respectively.
I will consider myself a fashion guru, because I DO NOT DO FASHION, I AM FASHION. I wanted to make what is affordable for everyone, because when I was growing up, every time I go to the mall, see anything nice; I’m usually not able to afford it, because their prices were ridiculously high for an average young girl like me. So after I moved to the United States, I realized you could actually look a million dollar without spending a thousand bucks. What I’m actually driving at by my statement is, you do not have to spend hundreds of dollars to look good. I got inspired by Forever21 (an affordable store here in the United States. They specialize in very elegant and affordable price items) I wanted to make clothing which will be affordable for all college/University students, because I didn’t have that advantage in my teen years. And I named my Store Forever Young Boutique, in honour of Forever21
My main focus is on dresses. You could literally wear a dress everywhere; job interviews, parties, dinner date with your man etc. I feel a dress commands respect, I mean can one ever go wrong with a pair of black dress? Absolutely not! My favourite colours are black and blue. You just can’t go wrong with those two colours. (Scared of colour blocking? Throw a black/blue dress on, and you are ready to rock and roll)
I love fashion because with fashion I’m able to communicate my feelings without actually opening my mouth to speak. I love to leave people breathless, like “Wow who is that girl that just walked by”
Did i mention that i also have a TV show coming up in July on STV and DSTV Stations, called Fashion Buzz: This is about the good, the bad and the OMG WHAT WAS SHE THINKING of our celebrities on the Red Carpet. So you will hear more of Princess Demi Fashions Company frequently.
