It is not every time you see a bride with an extra-spectacular headgear. Filmmaker, Kemi Adetiba has revealed the reason for her extra-large gele. It would be that she donned what she described as a ‘satellite gele’ on her wedding day which stirred a lot of reactions.
According to her,the reason for her ‘big gele’ was to stand out as the tallest person in the room. She added that she wanted to be regarded as the ‘King of Brides‘.
In her words:
“First look for our magical #UndeniablyYours2022 celebration was designed and created by the amazing @hertunba. From the moment Florentina sent me the design sketch, I knew I would love the aso oke and lace dress, and she did not disappoint.
Being my first outfit of the celebration, I knew it had to be a statement in my own language. It was. And to add exclamation marks to this statement dress, I briefed @vaavavoom weeks prior that I wanted my gele to “high-five” the sky. I wanted a satellite dish!! I wanted to be the tallest person in the room because of my gele. And I wanted it to be one to remember. A real “King of Brides” crowning glory!!! Did VAVA understand the assignment? Or could the gele have been bigger?”
