Lulu Hassan and her husband, Rashid Abdallah, possess a secret recipe for expanding the brand of a celebrity or media figure.
Ever since the couple announced their joint presentation of the Swahili bulletin, they have become a familiar presence on TV and Instagram, where their combined following amounts to 1.6 million followers.
Okuto, with his penchant for creating distinctive garments that range from formal to casual wear, skillfully incorporates vibrant kitenge elements to achieve the desired effect.
Bryson, known for his keen attention to detail and impeccable sense of style, takes pride in showcasing his own designs and effortlessly sporting them.
One of the fashionista’s core beliefs is that the perfect fit of an outfit can mean the difference between looking stylish and experiencing a near-wardrobe malfunction.
“Your personal image, branding, and style can significantly influence how people perceive you,” he advises.
Occasionally, he generously shares fashion tips on his Instagram page, offering insightful advice that comes free of charge, while emphasizing that the desired look may require separate purchases.
Having captured the attention of celebrities like Lulu, Rashid, Size 8, Muthoni Mukiri, and many others, Okuto has learned that celebrities hold substantial influence in the fashion industry.
Journalists and fashion critics devote considerable attention and time to reviewing what celebrities wear for special occasions.
The advent of social media has brought forth a new wave of fashion influencers in Kenya, who showcase their outfits on platforms such as Instagram and Facebook.
Thanks to Okuto’s influence, Rashid Abdalla is now trending on social media as a true style icon.
His latest fashion statement consists of a perfectly fitting black t-shirt and blue jeans. He posed for photographs on a rooftop with breathtaking views of the capital city in the background.
However, there is a small detail that may have escaped his notice or perhaps was deliberately intended to convey a message.
His black t-shirt bears an inscription that suggests, or can be interpreted as suggesting, that he is significant. It reads, “My PEN IS bigger than yours.”
Captioning the captivating photo, he added, “#sisemikitu Nikisahau nalia, nikikumbuka nacheka,” which translates to “#sayingnothing; I cry when I forget, and laugh when I remember.”
Rashid Abdalla’s t-shirt has generated significant interest among his fans, leading to the following comments:
