Nollywood Royalty Shaffy Bello Fuses Art & Style with Gbenga Artsmith

The convergence of style, rich heritage, and artistic expression culminates in a captivating visual narrative, prominently featured in a recent editorial by Gbenga Artsmith. Renowned for its distinctive African-inspired accessories, Gbenga Artsmith has unveiled a new fashion editorial that stars acclaimed actor Shaffy Bello, transforming her into the quintessential 'owanbé muse'. This stunning collaboration serves as a profound source of inspiration for a diverse audience, including the mothers of brides and grooms, future brides, and discerning stylish guests attending celebratory events.
Shaffy Bello is impeccably styled in an array of opulent and commanding ensembles, each meticulously curated to evoke a sense of grandeur.

These include striking statement coral pieces, exquisite lustrous pearl creations, and intricately designed gemstone-embellished chokers. Complementing these magnificent adornments are the brand’s iconic beaded bags, which are presented as the essential 'arm candies' for the vibrant wedding season.
