Nikky Khiran is one Nigerian fashion designer that has
lasted the test of time. She has been in the world of fashion for over two decades
and she is still waxing strong. Her view about Nigerian women is awesome but
she insists that some of them commit some style blunders that ought to be
avoided. “Yes Nigerian women are extremely fashionable, yet it is sad when
older women try too hard to dress like young girls. I believe in aging
gracefully but we can't all be like Tina Turner who gets away with almost
everything! So, don’t step out revealing parts of you that should be covered in
the name of fashion. Simply put, you can still be sexy even while covered up,”
she enthused.
Relieving her experience in the fashion industry wasn’t
difficult. “Yes I've been a designer for over 20 years and putting smiles on
the faces of people is worth all the hard work. People buy my pieces and call me
later to commend my work. That honestly makes me happy. Yes, my clients call me
to talk to me about compliments they get when they wear my designs, that makes
me existed,” she stressed.
