Friends and family of notable Nigerian fashion designer Remi Lagos have said their last goodbyes. Her lying in state and viewing took place on Thursday, November 15, 2012 in London.
Her funeral service was held on Friday, November 16, 2012, where she was cremated at the Golders Green Crematorium.
Meanwhile, the late Nigerian fashion icon’s best friend Funmi Iyanda has launched a mini-campaign to build a memorial website for her.
Friends and fans of the fashion designer are encouraged to visit any cinema on Monday, November 19, 2012 on Remi’s final ‘Monday cinema nite’ dressed in black and take pictures of themselves.
We’re told the pictures will be collated and posted on the website.
