Temple Muse has just got bigger. The luxury Lagos boutique unveiled its new flagship store on Saturday 5 November, which now offers two cool, clean floors of African and international fashion.
Upstairs has a department store feel with Tiffany Amber, Odio Mimonet, Sunny Rose, Lanre da Silva Ajayi and Eki Orleans all hosting their own concession areas next to accessories displays by Amrapali, Lara Bohinc and Givenchy. Downstairs is open plan and offers a wide range of lifestyle products such as candles, candy, ornaments and books as well as a Moet & Chandon bar area.
The exclusive launch party also doubled up as the Nigerian launch for New African Fashion, ARISE editor Helen Jennings’s recently released book. To mark the occasion, she asked six designers featured in the New African Fashion to make limited edition book coverings. Maki Oh, Jewel by Lisa, Mataano, Tiffany Amber, Lanre da Silva Ajai and Tsemaye Binitie did the honours and the coverings are now for sale at Temple Muse.
Here are some photos from the opening event.
