Ondo State born houte couture fashion designer, Deola Sagoe's new advert has now gotten viral and being tagged a racist advert after the popular international designer used only White models in her advert.

The fashion designer is under fire from fans and her followers over the YouTube advert video because her wears are mostly used by blacks and the reason why she couldn't embrace the race.

When you over hype someone's brand, you unknowingly make it more expensive e.g Deola Sagoe

I get the idea but she should have at least added more black models to balance it. Looks like she's trying to target the international market. But thinking about it, how many oyinbos or asians would wear Aṣọ Oke tho..besides the ones getting married to Yorubas.

Anyway, no need to bash her. No be say una fit afford am sef. Pesin wey dey charge like 1m for cloth.. grin
Her clients just got married.

On a side note, the babe really cashed out these past few weeks sha. She styled both Osinbajo and Dangote 's daughters.

Some people are only looking out for faults in other people's work. To me, I think the advert is about proving the products are internationally accepted, though including a black model as well wount be a bad idea but the point being proven from the advert is that the designs look good even on people who are not known to wear designs like that.

Nigerians have the "white-man superiority syndrome".

That's why music video roles for girls named Folake are played by white women.
This is one of the reason Toke Makinwa almost bleached herself to death.
