Our number one classy and most stylish male visual artist in Nigeria is
Diseye Tantua. Some may not agree with this, but for years now, he has dazzled
his followers and lovers of his art with his sense of style.

In every art gathering, the multi-media artist arrests everyone’s
attention with his appearance. You cannot help but notice him. To show how
keen Tantua is about his look, the Port Harcourt-based artist has gone as far as
getting himself a stylist, which many artists dare not! Warri man will say, “Who bone them?”
Number two is Timi Kakandar. This artist, who just relocated to Lagos
from Port

Harcourt is what we call a fashionista, and he has the body structure
and height that make whatever he puts on fit perfectly on his body.
He may not have a stylist like Tantua, but he
has been able to style himself, which is a plus for him. Thumbs up, Kakandar.

Johnson Uwadinma’s look may appear simple, but you will agree with us
that he knows how to combine colours. You will always see him in shirts and
chinos, and they sit well on his body, which he complements with trainers and
sometimes, with shoes. Every now and then, you see him in native attire, which
he wears with pride. He is also a Port Harcourt-based artist.

If you ask me, I would say that the Port Harcourt-based artists are more classy and stylish than the majority of Lagos-based artists who dress
shabbily. Someone once said they dress like 'beggars'. No be me talk am o!

However, we still have some Lagos-based artists who do not joke with
their look. We will mention just a few. Oliver Enowonwu is the ladies’ man. He
eats, breathes and lives fashion.

Edosa Oguigo dresses all the time smartly, and he wears different shades of
blue than other colours. Oguigo is also a lover of trainers and bowler hats.

| Olu Ajayi |
Olu Ajayi always kill it, he is the shirt, trousers and jeans type.
Nyemike Onwuka wears his shirt, jeans and trainers in a unique way that stands
him out from the crowd.

| Uche Edochie |
Chamberlin Ukenedo’s name may not ring a bell; the Creative Director/Illustrator
with an advertising agency, once in a blue moon, you run into him at art events. He made us because of his distinguished style. Perhaps it could be because his artist-turned-designer wife (Ella Cutout) is
behind his taste in style. Uche Edochie may not make fashion statements all the time, but he has
it going on for him.

How can we forget Olusegun Adejumo?
The man knows how to impress, especially with native attire. His tailor deserves
a pat on the back.
Well, you may say what business does an artist have with fashion…but who
says artists shouldn’t look good and be stylish? You tell us if you disagree
with us…
