THE LITTLE WHITE DRESS.

The little white dress is one fashion staple that is certainly taken for granted. A must have ;especially for fashionistas that live in the tropics,as white has a cooling effect and also gives an aura of innocence.The lwd in my opinion is the ultimate blank canvas, as it gives you the chance to jazz it up with accessories.
it is can be flirty,feminine,fun,chic..... it can take you from day to evening depending on how its worn.It's a refreshing change from the overly hyped little black dress(lbd).
here are some of my favourites rocked by celebrities and my Nigerian divas off course.

QUALIFICATION--I'm a university under graduate(University of Port harcourt),with no formal training in dress making.Just a 1 year sewing stint at my mum's friend sewing shop;better known as ''Aunty Ada's shop''.
ABOUT LABEL--Akpos Okudu dresses are romantic,flirty and super feminine.I absolutely love colours,so i work with a large range of bright fabrics,which are a major source of inspiration for me.I'm also inspired by different cultures,art and nature.
