Eponymous Nigerian fashion label, Lanre da Silva, on November 17, celebrated a significant milestone—its 20th anniversary in the fashion industry.
The occasion was marked by a spectacular runway show titled “Eternal Glamour,” which showcased the brand’s renowned craftsmanship and artistic vision. Known for her extensive list of celebrity clientele, Ajayi pulled out all the stops for her Spring/Summer 2025 collection, featuring star-studded appearances that lit up the runway.

Among the guests was Mo Abudu, the name behind EbonyLife Media. The media mogul made a striking entrance in a vibrant multicolored long dress adorned with dramatic fringes that flowed elegantly from her shoulders.
Her striking outfit was complemented by flawlessly contoured makeup and blush-toned lips, making her a standout figure on the runway.
Joining her was the talented Nollywood actress Rita Dominic, who made her much-anticipated runway debut. Dominic donned a gorgeous strapless mini dress embellished with sculptural 3D floral motifs.
She opted for minimal accessories and wore a pair of black ankle strap heels while her hair was styled in a voluminous afro that highlighted her unique beauty. The audience showed their appreciation with applause as she sashayed down the runway like a true supermodel.
The night was further elevated by a surprise appearance from Nigerian singer D’Banj, real name, Oladapo Daniel Oyebanjo. He showcased a metallic long robe, bringing added flair to the already vibrant atmosphere of the evening.
Lanre Da Silva Ajayi’s collection celebrated the essence of its two-decade legacy, showcasing the brand’s innovative use of African print fabric and intricate floral motifs. Each piece was carefully crafted to embody sophistication and elegance — ranging from midi dresses to long, and figure-hugging gowns.
The designs encapsulated a modern take on traditional craftsmanship, appealing to both local and international audiences. With Mo Abudu and Rita Dominic lighting up the runway alongside the stunning designs, the event was a perfect mix of style and art.
