Dress made from 500 loaves of bread stun Africa Magic Viewers' Choice Awards
Queen Mercy Atang arrived at the 12th edition of the Africa Magic Viewers' Choice Awards (AMVCA) in Nigeria with "a dress made from more than 500 loaves of bread." The event was held at the Eko Hotel and Suites in Lagos. The AMVCA is described as Africa's biggest night in film and fashion.
Atang said the outfit was designed to promote her bread-baking business. She told the BBC that the appearance was intentional marketing rather than shock value, stating, "What other place is better to advertise my business than the AMVCA?" The dress was designed by Toyin Lawan of Tiannah's Empire, who commented on Instagram that she's beginning a trend of "everyone wear your business".
Some fans were not impressed, suggesting the display represented a waste of food, a suggestion the reality TV star rejected.
