Nigerian digital creator and filmmaker Alexandra Ibeto radiated elegance and joy as she celebrated her birthday in a show-stopping gown by Lagos-based fashion house Kols Apparel.
The influencer, known for her dynamic content, shared images and a short video of the festive moment with the simple, heartfelt caption: “Happy birthday to me,” prompting an outpouring of celebratory messages from her devoted fanbase across social media.
The custom-designed outfit was the undeniable centrepiece of the celebration. Ibeto’s gown, a masterful creation from Kols Apparel, featured a bold, form-fitting silhouette adorned with a vibrant cascade of artificial flowers in shades of orange, pink, white, and Black.
The dress combined sophistication with dramatic flair through its off-shoulder neckline and a high leg slit, perfectly capturing a modern and celebratory aesthetic. The look was a testament to the designer’s skill in crafting garments that are both visually striking and deeply expressive.
A team of Lagos-based creative experts completed the polished ensemble. Renowned artist Facekard artfully did her makeup, while the celebratory cream-colored cake, adorned with lit candles, was a bespoke creation by Chocos Cake and Balloon.
By spotlighting these local talents—the designer, the makeup artist, and the baker—Ibeto’s birthday served not only as a personal milestone but also as a vibrant showcase of Nigeria’s thriving creative industry.
The celebration highlighted her influential role in setting trends and championing homegrown fashion and artistry.
