Stephanie Coker stuns on the cover of The Cover Magazine’s latest issue by Accelerate TV. Dressed in a leather set from Tokyo James’ SS19 collection, Stephanie talks about fashion, her business and philanthropy.
The Media IT girl is definitely serving up some fashion week style inspo in the shoot following the cover story, from an embellished trench coat to a double-breasted blazer dress.
Read excerpts from the interview below:
On how her life as a “politician’s wife” affects her style
My husband is at the moment campaigning to be a member of the House of Representatives in Abeokuta. So, I’m a politician’s wife, which is quite cool, because I love giving a different look on what it is to do something, and I feel that in Nigeria, where we have so many elderly politicians, their wives are usually required to look and dress a certain way. You shouldn’t lose your personality once your other half is put in a position of power.
I am so glad that my husband is still the same man he was before we got married. He is still him and has not tried to become something else, which I feel is important. So, I’m going to be killing it in fashion, as a politician’s wife.
Well, I have a couple. You can find me rocking Style Temple when it comes to asoebi and some red carpet events, I also love Lisa Folawiyo. But I do love androgynous vibes, so I’m really feeling Tokyo James at the moment- I know- who is he right? LOL.
On finding the balance between her public and private life
I believe that everyone has two sides – especially when you’re in the spotlight. So there is the brand that must always be prim and proper, but at home with friends and family, believe me – I am no celebrity.
Whoa! What do I have coming up? I am working on my own projects in terms of television, because obviously, TV is my first love- sorry babe. I love hosting, and I’m really just working on content that is extremely experimental. I working on something in the love space coming soon, and I’m also working on something to do with fashion. I’m not gonna tell you any more. LOL.
