With their sumptuous stitches and delicious designs decorating all kinds of body shapes, Emeka Oparah’s Ethelberts is gradually but steadily becoming the designer of choice to many.
Cornering high profile clients and taking up permanent residence in most wardrobes, all that is needed to pitch one’s tent permanently with these makers of custom menswear is just a trial.
From ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo ( their latest catch) to Segun Ogunsanya, MD/CEO of Airtel; Eniola Bello of ThisDay to Steve Nwosu of The Sun; Simon Kolawole of The Cable to Azuh Arinze of YES INTERNATIONAL Magazine; Gbenga Aruleba of AIT to Femi Sowoolu of Jamz FM; Yomi Odunuga of The Nation to Arinze Anapugars of Glo; Pat Utomi of CVL to Tony Onyima, a former Commissioner in Anambra State, the list just keeps expanding and increasing. Not forgetting others like Richard Akinnola, Femi Akintunde-Johnson, Fred Chukwuelobe, Ikem Okuhu, Chris Adetayo and Chris Kehinde Nwandu.
Interestingly, Ethelberts’ clients are not just happy having their measurements taken and then their orders timely delivered; without any prompting or payment, they also gladly pose and post their photographs draped in Ethelberts upon taking delivery on social media.
Founded only last year (2016), Ethelberts’ rise has been phenomenal – thanks to the frontman’ s PR acumen and media wizardry. Forever, but innocuously chipping in a word or two about the fast-growing brand, many are now hopelessly in love with the clothing line which the Airtel top shot named after his late father, Nna anyi Ethelbert Oparah.
Silently but stylishly extending their frontiers to countries like the United States of America, the United Kingdom and Ghana, Ethelherts, through a combination of professionalism and partnership that works, is effortlessly becoming a must-have in every wardrobe. And especially if you know what time it is, fashion-wise.
