Is Modeling Still A Dream (in Nigeria)? Can Nigerian Models Still Thrive in the Age of Influence?

تفصیل

This was Session 2 of the Heineken Lagos Fashion Week 2025 conversations on Tea With Tay, and the question on the table was a real one: “Is Modeling Still A Dream (in Nigeria)? Can Nigerian Models Still Thrive in the Age of Influence?” My guests for this session were Bolajo Fawehinmi (Model & Industry Voice) and Rebecca Fabunmi (Runway Talent & Creative Muse), and together we unpacked the realities of the modeling world today — from the impact of social media and influencer culture to opportunity, access, evolution, and staying relevant in a fast-changing industry. A necessary and honest conversation about what it really takes to make it as a Nigerian model in today’s digital era. #WhereTasteRules #LagosFW25 #HeinekenLFW #HLFW25
