Did this I think in 2018 too
I am good with illustrations. I might not be a badass tailor, bit I'm good at interpreting ad illustrating Fashion designs.
I explain each detail word for word to the best of my ability. So, it's sometimes hard for you to steal or copy my work and understanding every detail to be able to replicate it. You might get stuck or hit a brick wall.

I have to explain to you, 'what is what and why ' in the drawing or sketch. That way, the ideas can be pieced properly together and a doable design and realistic finished work is gauranteed or achieved.
As one who didn't learn this from anyone, or any fashion school , I'm still learning every now and then. It's a journey. So, I'm proud of my self so far.
Let's just say I have a flare for creativity. It's inside of me. It came with me. I'm only trying to nurse it. God, into you capable hands I commit my dealings and aspirations ooh to gauranty good tidings and an expected end !
My expectations will not be cut short in the name of Jesus. Amen !

...
I think I was trying to sketch a paisely design short sleeve shirt here... Anyway...it looks better on the laptop with the aid of computer software. Yes, I have those too. But I won't be posting them now as those look more like finished works and easier for anyone to steal and copy one's ideas. These ones are all my old works that were hand drawn. Just sharing my transitioning and journey with you all. For memories sake.

You know we have plenty other designers on this NL space viewing threads nau. Abi...so, one has to post only what he can afford to loose.

... Sefunmi Artistry is what I scribbled down there
I made this design long time ago. Awwn, memories...

I want couture dresses, haute couture, to be my trademark. I don't know when and how I took up interest in liking female dresses, especially gowns. Flamboyant ones.
I want to be a household name similar to the likes of the Dolce & Gabbanas of this world, Alexander Wang, Versace couture, Oscar Delarenta, John Galliano, Gucci, Balmain, and the rest of them which you all know.
I know right? It's kinda of odd for a boy, especially a Nigerian boy to be so emotionally attached to women's clothes like this. If it were to be those white boys or westerners, it would be understandable. Lol. Almost all the talented male designers in Hollywood ( the fashion branch of it) as well as those not in Hollywood are gay as heck. Research it if you doubt this. Jeremy Scott ooh, D&G brothers ooh, late Alexander McQueen ( RIP, Love his t-shirts,) and many more of them. It's like the pass to becoming a great, renowned designer globally is to be gay or a homo****. Is it the hidden , satanists elite agenda at work? Lol .. nah, not me. I'll make it somehow. God dey.

' God that started a good thing IN YOU is more than able to see it to completion '
It's written in the Bible even.

I did say lifestyle in my topic title, right?
So, I believe designing clothes as well as cars still qualifies as a lifestyle.
So... That supercar Mercedes Benz you see in that drawing by me ( totally from my imagination,not copied) was an idea ( still is) I came up with for @ Mercedes Benz company. I used to love Mercedes, although, BMW was my favorite of all time. That has since changed. BMW has dropped down my list. Mercedes has risen to second position on my fave list.

Righteousness2:
Let's even leave the Galiee Boat.

The Events playing out on Earth Presently Before our Eyes Just as JESUS Christ said it would, is clear enough for anyone to know and Understand that the Holy Bible is the Word of GOD and that JESUS Christ is the Only means of Salvation.

No one on Earth today has an Excuse for not Believing in JESUS Christ as we are seeing Bible being Fulfilled Live before us.

Listen Folks,
Mary won't Save you,
Buddha won't Save you,
Mohammed won't save you,
Allah won't save you,
Dead saints won't save you,
The new age movement won't save you,
Religion won't save you,
Your works ( good things we do) won't save you

There is Only One Way through which we can be Saved.
There is Only One Name that Saves and One way to Heaven.
That way and Name is JESUS Christ .

Gbamsolutely!!! @ the bolded.
Even those who have been blinded so they do not see, those who have been given over to reprobate minds know the bolded holds truth in it. But their comfort zones and the status-quo is what they will not want to change.
That rude awakening is what they don't want to be prepared to deal with. Lol.
Bible is more real than the clouds that we can see in the air. They know it. But are uncomfortable. Scared. Cowardly, as the Bible termed them. So they hide under different umbrella unions - atheists, gnostic, bla, bla, bla...and the rest.

Satan is just rubbing his palms together every day. His agenda has "agended" well. Lol.

NiklauseFred:
You're doing well
Why don't you go in to fashion?

Hi.
Thanks for the compliment. It's appreciated.
I'll answer your question in subsequent posts. I'm still updating. Telling a bit of my story while I upload snapshots of my drawings from past and present times.

Anyway, thanks for your feedback.
It means people are actually reading through. Good to know.

Atomic Betty.. God forbid
Couldn't stand it.

Pere is coming with his own ' Tom and Jerry was there '
Lol..old man..

Cow and chicken

mycar:
And you failed to understand that people live in those areas he listed and acknowledging them is good for the products as those cloths were not cooperate wears but casual wear and for those on the street.
Whitemoney is a businessman and he got his targeted customers right there.

And who are you again??
How did we cross paths?
Pls, remind me
Maybe you are Downchelsea

DownChelsea:
We've heard it before.

Thief

Cultist
Football age
Juju man.


Everything. No be today.

Her Excellency, ma'am . Our able CEO of WMG , Nairaland chapter. You and I are not in a squabble, nau.
You know I can't attack you. You're one moniker I respect as far as this BBN ish is concerned. I dey clear road for you when I see you approaching.
I won't go there.
You are my madam on this thread. Leave me to attack only the trolls who come for me.

As I was saying...

I am gonna backtrack to yesterday's runway show involving the housemates.

Great show, by the way.

Now, let me discuss about Pere for a moment.
That presentation. That accent... it's a marketer on its own.
What am I saying? I am saying that his speech mannerisms, diction and delivery has the tendency to set him apart from the others to some judges. His velvet outfit may not have been the best or second best, considering it wasn't fluid enough for "street looks" that is ready to be worn on the go. In my opinion, that is.
Now if you were an apparel owner, or one of those CEO'S like that...You heard Pere speaking and explaining his look yesterday. Will you not being business savvy want such a person as your spokesperson and face of your brand? Don't lie, oh . Endorsements would come calling, left, right and center.
Dude is a sleek, sly criminal when it comes to choosing his words. Hope you get the gist of what I'm ranting about here ? Aiight... Next.

WhiteMoney.
I don't understand what that my brother was doing, oh . Turned the fashion show into a subtle, yet, obvious CAMPAIGN process. Dude would make a good politician.

042
Marrarraba, Kaduna, Ojuelegba, Benin, etc. All those places he mentioned were not necessary
I mean, if you just stepped into your house and met the television on, you would not know that it was a fashion show because he was talking offpoint. Only smart people would decode that strategy. I know some will say , ' ehhn, we like him like that '
I don't hate him either. He's still my fave, but I don't sugarcoat my words. He upset me a little yesterday.
Over-cacu was too much on his part

But, I'm just stating what he did. Game your fellow housemates, but reduce the way you game us the viewers, nau. It now begins to look like we are dumb and you are wiser than all of us. Hmmmn...
I'll update this soon. I dey come.

Ehen, I'm back...

As I was saying...

Pere ( I still dislike him though on the show ) has a diction that you just gotta like. Although, he can be annoying when he carefully structures his words in a low speaking tone in order to " stay on course "
He doesn't want to inadvertently fall out of the accent . It has happened few times on the show. But he is smooth, still. I give it to him.
So my brothers, wahala for who doesn't have good speech mannerisms,oooohhh.
Learn, build yourself for yourself. It may sound absurd, but your speech mannerism can open doors for you and allow you enter certain circles " univited "
I swear down. E dey happen. I've seen it happen to others . I've equally lived it.
That's the state we find ourselves in this world now. We just have to roll with it.
Not when you go for a job interview, you would be skipping.
Interviewer :
' So Mr. Sefunmi how did you hear about this job ? '
Mr. Sefunmi :
' Thank you Sir. I " see " the job offer on a poster, in front of one signpost near the road. That's how...'

You see how the above reply from Mr. Sefunmi doesn't meet standards, yes ? Good.

Interviewer :
' Interesting . Young man, let me kindly ' see ' you out of my office . ' ( to usher you out)

Mr. Sefunmi :
' Oh Sir, you want to see me outside? You want us to talk outside. Okay. '

Interviewer:
' No! ( Face palm emoticon )
Interviewer :
' I meant, please let me escort you out of my office. You are not what we are looking for. You are not suitable to occupy the position. '

Mr. Sefunmi :
'But Sir...' ( Sad face emoticon )

END OF INTERVIEW
So, you see why it is crucial to have proper diction?
The BBN show is also for learning. It's not just to watch, laugh with your legs upside down, forgetting yourself in the process. Then next, you rush to resume your trolling duties on Nairaland BBN thread.

I just thought I should share that little Sunday nugget with whoever needed it.

I know I have taken up plenty of space. Hehe.
No vex.

Irritating look

She is almost overweight now.
Expose them all you want...still...

Let me book this space for ranting. I'll return here soon to fill it up.
WMG won't like this one I'm about to analyze. But sorry... Bear with me. I'm still one of you.
I just went over the video of yesterday's runway show and I can't but help it. I must talk. It's not just WhiteMoney. I'll speak on one other housemate as well.

Right after the break.

I'm at home. Come and slap me.

...
Trying to get that picture perfect snapshot.
Lol...I manage try. Just for added effects
#fashion

Sorry the photos are not ' quite clear '
Na the way wey I see am , ohh

This is my ladies flats design/idea that I did a while back...dug it up .

Nawa oh... photos can't even fit properly. Not clear. Mtsheww
Photos are clearer in my gallery, but blurry and irritating when I upload them to Nairaland.
* Nerve-racking *

Good Sunday to everyone sha.

Let me drop some old works of mine...
#file #archives #NairalandIssaferthanINSTAGRAM& FACEBOOKaccountthatcanbehackedanddeleted #Lol #happenedmorethannonce

Eyahh...the dress on the stripped paper was one of those ones I designed back in 2018 when I was jus beginning to grow in my interest in fashion and equally developing the skill of taking out ideas in my head and putting them down on paper. Practice makes better. Little fond memories sha...

safarigirl:
Good morning

I hope Ebuka has his best outfit ready for tonight, because the viewership for this eviction is going to be the most since the show started.


This is the finale before the finale. The anticipation is wild, results remain conflicting, top housemates are in danger, and this could very well be the final decision on Top 5.

Everybody already knows the winner, so, finale na just ceremony, but this eviction.....


Anyway, good morning folks. See you by 8:00PM....or not.

Good morning to you too, O jareh.
Impressed that you greeted all with cheer ( a clean mind). Even those who attack you daily.
Not all are mannerless and unhinged on this platform I guess.
At the bolded , it's not certain for now , oh. As in, not crystal clear. You know there are two top favourites. Ehen...

superlicious:
This is quiet disturbing, are you another Boma on the prowl? No go destroy person marriage o.

Haters must hate and agend!
They can't resist the urge to " shook mouth" into most of my matter on this site.
What is disturbing is that you don't even understand the kind of e- friendship @ Caramel and I have. It's platonic...it's jokes, it's playful. Stop panicking like you are her husband. Lol...
Besides, Caramel ain't naive to allow me " destroy " her marriage. Maybe your girlfriend is, though. Mind sending me her number?

Good Sunday to you, fella.

Wetin dey occur for the house self ?
Oya ,let me leave this Pop Central and go BBN arena.

Good Sunday to everyone.
Hope you all spoke to Papa God this morning. Stay blessed!

Amanda4life:
THEY ARE OVER MATURED TO DO AFTER PARTY GAME

That guy you quoted sounds absurd and bitter.
He is always bitter and faults everything on the show and off the show too.
Lol.
He should go and tell them not to play the games that they are not matured enough, nau.
Joker.

Tranquility2345:
Hmmm. Why am I not surprised that you know all these?

The way you trail me about these streets like " paper trail " album, it's like you are developing feelings for me, ohh.
Nah-ah...I don't do men. Go and find a Gaybriel somewhere nearest to you.

Stalking is ugly and remember, GOD DON'T LIKE UGLY
If there is a transformer close to your street ( most developed neighborhoods have at least one ) find it, walk up to it and do the needful. Make sure your hands are wet for added effect.
Happy to miss you.

Threebear:
3rd ?
He came 4th according to the latest source.
Better make peace with it , he's going home.

Did Angel surpass his votes percentage according to this your latest source?
Cross that I thought was liked by people.

GARBTY:
But Yousef too nah coded bad man don’t be deceived by his naive behaviors

He is. I said this too some weeks back.
The man has smooth words, bedroom bars, ulterior naughty motives...infact, he's a smooth criminal.
Before you know it, he's " off'd " your pant . A girl won't see it coming. Na them be that...Yousef

carammel:
Some realisations come.with age for some people, maybe you fall in that category.

Hian

Omo, my own was not with age , oh. I knew what I was doing even from the beginning. Let's just say , life happened.
I thank God I was able to overcome the urges to smoke even after everything. If it's not your way, it's not your way. As for club, it's not about age i think. Mature people dey club steadily nau... You know this too

Hian, what ? Why lip sealed ?
Issoright. I won't ask further. Let me not make it awkward in a way.

I don't know my mind keeps telling me that LiquorRose is just using Emmanuel to know how it feels to love a man again.
Even when they kiss, my mind tells me not to be convinced by it. And it feels like she's the one pushing for the whole physical intimacy much more than Emmanuel is.
My mind are you sure , bayi ? Okay. Wait, I will ask my other mind ( my heart) to see what he feels about this ish.

I feel it's all for content sake. Emmanuel is her experiment. To grow fond of a man once more. Hmmn.
She's the real queen of highlights this year. They're all gaming us , jareh. This year is filled with gamers and actors.


Anyhoo.... I'm not convinced

carammel:
I dunno anything about club again, what will an old woman be doing in club

Haha... I also gave up on clubs few years ago. After several years of clubbing which increased my cigarettes smoking and alcohol drinking, and my ear ringing (tinnitus) just because of feel-good mentality. There wasn't any meaningful gain abeg. White girls can make you kill yourself by yourself because of trying to live lavida loca that you know is not where you were initially coming from. Lol. That time is past sha

Hey! Don't call yourself an old woman nextime. I don't want to see you that way..even if is true. Not that I think it is, though.
You're a ' yoppy mummy ' as they call them in our local slangs.
You're loved , jare. I will try and be there for you at your old age...of course, your husband would also be there. As per, young friend you used to know , lol. I'll help you wash your clothes when your hands have grown old and weak. Let's see...

fitzmayowa:
WhiteMoney's favourite song playing.....

I know it's a thing of cultural pride, but it's annoying...Lol
I know they will come for my head now. Oya
