Tesslo Concepts Unveils Mr. Fix Nigeria in Exciting ‘Billboard’ Collection

Award-winning fashion designer Tessy Oliseh-Amaize has unveiled a new menswear collection tagged ‘Billboard’. Known for her great sense of versatility and creativity, the University of Middlesex, United Kingdom graduate of Fashion Design says this new collection was inspired by the audacity to dare, to dream and to explore ‘creative diversity in possibility.’ “The new collection she said is for men who dare to be different by experimenting and making bold statement with their sense of style. The name of the collection she said comes from the idea of what the billboard represents. “Billboardsas we know them, carry very bold messages and are usually very conspicuous for everyone and the eyes to see. You would hardly miss a billboard on the street. It just stands out!”, she said.

“The creative fusion of the pieces, their exciting diversity, and metropolitan outlook with a location shoot in the streets of Accra also reinforces the concept of ‘Billboard’. You easily find billboards on the streets of big towns and cities”, she added. The collection modeled by her husband, Ohimai Godwin Amaize, popularly known as Mr. Fix Nigeria, the ‘Billboard’ collection was designed to mark his birthday. “My husband Mr. Fix Nigeria became a year older this week. He has been a major pillar of support for the Tesslo brand. He’s a risk-taker when it comes to fashion and I’m so proud of the way he wears my designs like a second skin,” Tessy, the Creative Director of Tesslo Concepts added. Recently, Tesslo Concepts broke the Internet with the unveiling of a menswear collection tagged ‘Lagos Island’ followed closely by ‘FLOTUS’ a Michelle Obama inspired 50s collection for women. Tessy, who is also the sister of former Super Eagles coach, Sunday Olise, has come a long way as she won the Best Fashion Designer Award at the Nigeria Fashion Show (NFS), in Paris in 2006.
