As the international community commemorated World Fashion Day, yesterday stakeholders have called for decent dressing across all ages.

 

World Fashion Day, celebrated on August twenty-one, every year, was set aside by the United Nations General Assembly to celebrate fashion in all forms.

 

Every year, the day brings all the fashion gurus together to observe their special day by celebrating the glory and spirit of fashion and its existence.

 

Speaking on the significant of the day, one of the stakeholders and chairman, Nigeria Union of Journalists, Anambra State Council, Dr Odogwu Emeka Odogwu said that fashion defines an individual’s personality and creates magic with its powerful impact.

 

Dr Odogwu, who said that World Fashion Day is celebrated to commemorate the glory, spirit and art of fashion throughout the world, highlighted the achievements of national, regional and international significance over the past year and cautioned everyone against indecent dressing, which according to him, is not glorifying God in anyway.

 

While defining fashion as an industry that keeps evolving every now and then with its newness and a unique sense that takes it on the path of being one of the busiest, yet most exciting genres to work in, Dr Odogwu called on government at all levels to develop and protect fashion industries within its jurisdiction to create jobs for the teaming youths and generate revenue.

 

For the prophet in charge, God’s Anointing Power and Healing Ministry, Ekwulobia, Prophet Okwuchukwu Okoye while noting that World Fashion Day brings forth an opportunity to honour those, who make it, present it and execute it, advocated decent dressings that glorify God.

 

Prophet Okoye, who said that indecent dressing leads to lots of temptations and destructions, described culprits as agents of Satan, who came to seduce, steal, and destroy.

 

while saying that indecent dressing is not peculiar to the female gender alone but also to the male counterpart, Prophet Okoye asked all to desist from exposing their bodies, which according to him is God’s temple, in order for them to be worthy of His love and blessings.
