Singer Faze has admitted he once bought
a fake designer cloth and never knew
until he wore it for a performance. He
however said he has learnt his lessons
and now look well before buying.
He also gave his fans some tips to watch
out for when trying to purchase good
quality clothes.
Have you ever bought a designer wear
before only to discover later that it was
fake?
Yes, I have. And I must say it was a painful
thing to experience, especially when you
don’t get value for your money on the
things you buy. That could have happened
because I was in a hurry to shop that day,
so I did not have enough time to check the
wear properly. It was a shop I wasn’t used
to. Continue…
What did you do after the discovery?
It was more painful because I couldn’t do
anything about the matter. I couldn’t make
any complaint simply because I was going
for a performance at an event that day and
it was getting late and I needed to put on
something new.
So I just popped into the shop to get the
outfit. It was after the performance I found
out it was fake. I didn’t bother to go back
to the store to make complaint. There are
some situations you just accept and move
on. You just need to learn a lesson from
every experience. Now when I shop I take
my time very well to be sure of what I buy.
Which fashion designer are you most
obsessed with?
I love Gucci. It’s an Italian luxury brand.
Why Gucci?
I love them because they’re outstanding in
design, which is hard to imitate; even when
they are imitated, you would know if you
are familiar with the brand.
What’s the maximum amount you would
spend on Gucci wears?
It all depends on what I’m buying. But
bear at the back of your mind that genuine
luxury wears don’t come cheap. They are
expensive.
Which shopping method do you prefer —
online or offline? And why?
I prefer online shopping because it saves
me time and cost. When it comes to offline
shopping, it can be tedious going from one
shop to the other. And in the end, you may
not get exactly what you want. When it
comes to online shopping too, it can be
difficult, even though there are many
stores online and you might not know
where to buy from. If I want to buy online,
I go to stores I can trust.
What do you do to your old fashion
items?
I keep some of them because they still go
with the trend no matter the number of
years I’ve been using them. And sometimes
I give out some of them.
What is the best fashion tip you’ve ever
received?
Always stay trendy.
What shopping tips would you give
Nigerians?
When shopping online or offline, make
sure you know the company you’re buying
from very well. There are tricksters out
there on both mediums who are looking
for Nigerians to dupe. Be careful.
