Emem Isong<\/p>\n

The University of Calabar Theatre Arts\u2019 graduate, who left the banking hall for a life in entertainment, started her own movie production outfit, Theatre Images, in 1994. She won the Reel Best Actress and Best Upcoming Actress of the Year Awards in 2003. Reloaded (2008), one of her films, was nominated for African Movie Academy Awards (AMAA) for Best Scriptwriting, Editing and Music. Emem tells DANIEL ANAZIA what fashion is to her.<\/p>\n

WHAT\u2019s your definition of fashion?
It should be a thing to be comfortable in, beautiful and timeless.<\/p>\n

Uniqueness of your style
I love being classic and timeless. I\u2019m not too much into what\u2019s ‘in vogue’. I may wear few designer pieces because they are comfortable and durable, but not just because it is a designer label.<\/p>\n

Favourite colour
I love black because it makes me look classy and it goes with every other colour. It also has a slimming look.<\/p>\n

Favourite piece of clothing
I wear more of jeans trousers than other clothes because of the nature of my work. Jeans is durable, good looking and can be accessorised with the right jewelries.<\/p>\n

Most expensive fashion piece ever bought
My wristwatch.<\/p>\n

Favourite designer(s)<\/p>\n

Donna Karan.<\/p>\n

How often do you update your wardrobe?
As often as I travel.<\/p>\n

What would you not be caught wearing any day?
White shoes!<\/p>\n

What would you consider as fashion faux pax?
Not wearing the right under garments under the right dress.<\/p>\n

Secret of your beautiful skin<\/p>\n

I use mostly Clarins products.<\/p>\n

Favourite signature scent<\/p>\n

Perfumes are my soft spot, I actually collect a lot. It\u2019s hard to choose a favourite, but I\u2019m hooked to Black Orchid by Tom Ford.<\/p>\n

Favourite food
My favourite food is my native Afang soup. Though I\u2019m learning to eat more of vegetables, salads, sea food, etc, I also like Chinese foods.<\/p>\n

Likes
I like hard working, go-getters, gutsy and creative people.<\/p>\n

Dislikes<\/p>\n

I hate dishonesty, hangers on, back-stabbers and cheats.<\/p>\n

What would you consider sexy in men and women?
In men, it\u2019s being self-assured, confident and wearing a good after-shave cologne. In women, it\u2019s more of a mystery.<\/p>\n

What is on shopping radar for the month?
An i-Pad!<\/p>\n

Choice travel\/holiday destination<\/p>\n

The United States for its liberal lifestyle. I have a lot of friends and family members there too.<\/p>\n

Philosophy of life
Live and let live! Let the eagle perch and the sparrow, too.<\/p>\n

What would you like to change in Nigeria, if given the opportunity?
The electric power situation!<\/p>\n
