Evangelist Lanre Teriba hit the limelight with the
release of his first album titled ATORISE (Reformer) in the year 2000.
Instantly, the spirit-filled song took over the country and in no time the
quiet and gifted musician turned an instant celebrity. Recently, Lanre Teriba
who has shown that he cannot be pushed aside in making fashion statement shared
the ideas behind some of the things he wears. Read on. …
Local Fabric
For over two years now, I’ve been using just one person
for my local fabric. The guy name is OPC; though I do not know why he stuck to
that name for his trade but I know it’s not to proclaim his membership of the
Yoruba group. OPC has his fashion designing outfit at Onipanu, Shomolu area of Lagos
State. I really like the way he does his designs that I can recommend him for
anyone to patronize.
One thing about me is that I love designer stuffs. I
really don’t like to go for less when it comes to getting my fashion item. So
for my jeans, I wear quality ones like Gucci, Banana Republic and the old Levis
but I love Salvatore Ferragamo most.
On my T-Shirts,
I love the same Ferragamo; but I wear a lot of Dolce and Gabana (D&G),
Next, Marc Jacob and the likes.
Shirts/Suits
Most times, I wear next for my regular shirts and when it
comes to my dress shirts, I have this wonderful Nigerian designer that does
that for me. The guy is known as Fashy Fizzy; he also designs Tony Tetuila’s
Dress Shirts.
Suits for me have to be Versace. I like the cut and style
the designer uses in putting designs together. Aside Versace, another suit
maker that I also like a lot is Hubert Givenchy.
Inner wear
I like polo Ralph Laurel for my inner shirt and for
boxers, I prefer Dolce and Gabbana.
Belt/Cap
For belt, I like Ferragamo and D&G but I do not like
to wear caps; I am not a cap person because I love the structure of my head.
Moreover, my brand name is ATORISE and since I preach about the head, people
must see mine.
Shoes
I have a lot of
shoes that I’ve lost count. I have virtually all good names you can think of in
my bedroom; but out of them all, I still prefer my Feragamo first, then Gucci
which I wear mostly for my slippers.
Sunglasses
What I’m wearing now is Gucci. I have also in my
collection Mark Jacob, Safari and Ray Ban.
Wrist watches
One fashion accessory that I don’t joke with is the wrist
watch; aside keeping time, it tells a complete story of a man. I cherish my
Burberry wrist watch a lot. I also have Louis Vuitton, Longiness and my Rolex,
I bought it for $6,000.00.
Perfume
When it comes to perfume, I’m a crazy fan of Hugo Boss. I
have most of his collections. At present, I’m using 212 Carolina, 212 Aqua, 212
Sexy, 212 Splash and 212 on Ice. Sometimes, I like to do a little Versace with
the Versace for men. Aside this, I’m a strictly Hugo Boss fan for perfume.
Beauty Product
I use the local
chewing stick every morning after which I’ll use a mouth wash. I do not like
using either brush or toothpaste and I’ve doing this for many years. For my
bath soap, I use Delta Pears baby lotion. And for my hair, I still stick with
sporting waves.
Colour
I love turquoise blue; the reason is simple, I love the
sky most when it brings on the colour. To me,it is the colour of life because
everywhere in the world, there is a sky.
Jewelry
I don’t like yellow gold at all except white gold. I wear
silver and white gold alone.
Cars
I like Peugeot products as well as Toyota and Honda
products. My Range Rover Sport is still efficient as well as the Mercedes Benz.
Books
I love MC million books. I also like that Yoruba book
known as Alawiye.
Mobile Phone/Laptop
I love Iphones because of its advanced technology. I
still like Blackberry and Samsung. Not forgetting the durable Nokia. I think
those are the names that matter in mobile phone these days. My Laptops are
apple and Toshiba.
Movies/Music
Omotola Jalade remains my favourite Nigerian
actress; she is very good at what she
does, extremely talented that you don’t see her in a role but the character she
chooses to play. For male, I still
prefer Yemi Awobodu.
Internationally, I’m not crazy about any international
actress; I only love our indigenous movie practitioners.
On music, I love Beautiful Nubian for male and Asa for female. These two
musicians are great because of not only their style of music but their
creativity.
Food/Drink
I’m a typical Yoruba boy, so anytime, I’ll always vote
for Eba and Ogbono or Apon Soup.
Hangout/Vacation Sport
When I’m on the Island, I like the hangout at Quilox and
when on the Mainland, I like hanging out at the Place.
My best vacation spot is in Houston Texas in the U.S. I
love the weather and the peacefulness.
