Closing out the Winter season and opening up the Spring fashion scene with the dynamic Deyemi…
I met Deyemi Okanlawon a couple years back via my FaceTime call with my god-given brother Jimmy Odukoya. I seen Deyemi in the background, we spoke and were acquainted. I have thoroughly enjoy watching him and Jimmy joke on each other online and I was always touched by the way that they gave back to so many together as a brotherly unit. Deyemi is not just your average actor, he is in fact Nigeria’s Highest Grossing Actor in 2021! That’s such a worthy accomplishment to have and alongside that this dope soul gives back, he is a community activist, he will tickle you pink with his natural comedic energy, he is highly educated & experienced, he is seen on tv screens from Africa to America and so much more; not to mention he does all this with a cape on and still manages to balance off his love with his beautiful family! It was such an honor to get to style and interview Deyemi… the experience was truly one for the books and one of my favorite sessions! I will not talk too much, check out our interview and editorial.
How does it feel to be one of Nigeria’s top rated actors?
I feel super grateful that my work is recognized and my craft is appreciated.
What Were you doing before your acting career?
I studied Chemical Engineering, but switched to sales and marketing. In 2013 I resigned from my position as the head of marketing of a tech company, OLX Nigeria, before pivoting into a full-time acting career.
What is your dream role as an actor?
I have no dream role and I am open to whatever roles God’s universe brings my way that unlocks my fullest potential.
What was one of your favourite roles so far in your career and why?
As with dream roles I have no favourites. Birthing different characters takes a huge amount of physical and mental work and I enjoy the process behind every single role oftentimes even more than the final production.
What advice would you give young Deyemi?
I would say to him “you’re on the right track, just dream bigger faster, self discipline is crucial, avoid distractions like a plague, but get more sleep and live a little”.
What advice would you give an upcoming actor?
Same as I would give young Deyemi. I would also say work on the business of acting (strategy/plan for getting gigs) at least as much as you work on the craft of acting (being a great performer).
How was your experience working with Designer Tasha, what was your favorite moment?
Working with Tasha was such a vibe. She’s a bundle of pure positive energy and the amount of preparation she put into the shoot shows her commitment to her work. I had an amazing time and I think among the many memorable moments my favourite was when I was teaching her some Naija dance steps – hilarious!
What’s your favorite food?
This is hard! My go to favourite meal is amala, gbegiri and ewedu with goat meat, but I can easily swap that with pounded yam and ofe nsala or banga and starch.
What’s your favorite place to travel to?
My favourite nation to travel to is my imagination! (Lol)
What do you do for fun?
Acting
What’s your ultimate goal in your career?
The goal is to be excellent at elevating every character I play and my dream is to perform at the highest possible level in the world.
Write a love note to your fans.
Dream big and when afraid dream bigger to conquer fear. Find your purpose, determine your desires, take responsibility for others. Seek wise counsel and have mentors. Expect failure but don’t let it stop you and discouragement but don’t let it hold you down for too long. Your mental and physical health is your greatest asset. Strive for excellence and to be the best in all you do. Let the successes and achievements of others inspire you but never treat them as god or be intimidated – you are your fiercest and only competition.
Tell us something we don’t know about you?
Most people don’t know that I like it when people don’t know much about me
What’s next for you? Any upcoming projects we need to look out for?
Everyone should look out for 2 Netflix originals I feature in, “The King’s Horseman” and “Blood Sisters”. I am also working, as a producer, on a slate of 4 film projects which are in various levels of development.

Mark your calendars for February 11th! The film Death on the Nile will be hitting theaters, and the mystery thriller promises to be chock full of intrigue, murder, and style!
Produced by Branagh, Ridley Scott, Judy Hofflund and Kevin J. Walsh, the film is a follow-up to Murder on the Orient Express (2017) and stars Branagh returning as Hercule Poirot, along with Tom Bateman (also returning from the first film), Annette Bening, Russell Brand, Ali Fazal, Dawn French, Gal Gadot, Armie Hammer, Rose Leslie, Emma Mackey, Sophie Okonedo, Jennifer Saunders, and Letitia Wright.
We had the wonderful opportunity to chat with the film’s fashion costume designer, the two time Oscar Award nominated Paco Delgado, to talk about how he captured 1930’s glamour via the characters:
To research costumes for the film, Delgado referenced old Paris Vogue Magazine’s, and looked to Hollywood starlets like Bette Davis and Marlene Dietrich for inspiration. He said, “I was looking at Chanel designs of the period,and Schiaparelli as well. We also looked at Fashion Museums and Vintage shops to get shapes, and ideas for cuts.”
His favorite look from the movie? Lynette (played by Gal Gadot’s) wedding dress. He said, “It was a natural, skin tone color. It was bias cut, with a really nice embroidering and painting on the skirt. It took us weeks to produce. That was the most exciting piece.”
He continued, “With the men’s costumes, we took a different approach. We didn’t want it to be too boring. We wanted to have color. We used red coats, and orange jackets, to get a bit out of the norm.”
Sounds fabulous! I can’t wait to check it out.
If you’re in New York City, we’ll actually be having a screening, but you’ll have to be a bit of a sleuth to figure out how to attend. Head on over to my Claire Sulmers Facebook page and watch my latest live for details.

A few days ago, the web erupted with beautiful photos, lensed by @diggzy , of Rihanna and Asap Rocky ‘ s baby announcement. Rihanna appeared radiant, cuccooned in a a hot pink vintage Chanel coat and matching Chanel necklaces. To make her pregnancy announcement of her page, Rihanna posted a more…personal photo, wearing a vintage No Limit Records Jersey and $1,410 Prada leather gloves, with the caption, “How the gang pulled up to #BlackHistoryMonth.”
No Limit is an independent label founded by Master P out of New Orleans, and is known to this day as one of the most successful black owned record companies in history.
Her long gloves are made of shiny nappa leather with a slightly irregular surface reminiscent of the leather used in the seventies come in a series of vibrant colors and more classic dark shades. The design is made modern by the small zipper pouch with enameled metal logo on one of the two gloves, an element that plays with the iconic triangle shape.
