Style Magnate S1

In this high-stakes fashion and design reality competition, 20 designers will embark on a month-long journey that will end with one of them being crowned and receiving a life-changing opportunity to launch their career as a designer for the stars. Contestants will be pushed to their limits, taking on challenges that test their sketching, designing, and sewing skills, all under immense pressure and while racing against the clock. 

With each episode, the stakes rise as contestants strive to deliver show-stopping designs to impress some of the most influential figures in fashion. With challenges that test their skills and creativity, and major celebrities to dress, the contestants must showcase their ability to sketch, design and sew under pressure, with the help of expert mentors and prominent industry titans.

Leading Style Magnate is Nigerian fashion designer and icon Mai Atafo, known for his award-winning designs and expertise. As the show’s Maestro, Atafo will be on hand to offer expertise, encouragement, and, of course, his signature tough love. 

Hosting the show is Joseph Benjamin, bringing his charisma and experience to the Bottega, with Yolanda Okereke, a renowned stylist and costume designer for film and television, who will serve as the Fashion Principal.
