Popular British supermodel, Naomi Campbell, on Monday, modelled for Nigerian designer at the Paris Fashion Week, according to BBC.

The Nigerian fashion designer, Kenneth Ize, 29, made his debut at the Paris fashion week in France, wowing the audience with his stunning designs, one of which was colourful on Naomi.

The supermodel was on hand to close the debut show for the Nigerian designer, receiving cheers from the guests at the show.

The Lagos-born fashion designer's collection in the French capital is inspired by his childhood memories of going to church with his mother, according to France 24 reports.

Vogue magazine reports that the sight of Campbell striding down Ize’s runway in a piece of traditional Nigerian fabric, known as Asoke, caused a media frenzy.

The show's organisers shared a video on Twitter of the moment:



Campbell also posted a video on her official Instagram page, saying that "@kennethize on your first show in Paris today ???? I’m so proud of you ???????? Beautiful collection, thank you . For First Time the seasonal collections in Paris have 3 AFRICAN DESIGNERS ???? #ParisFashionWeek #FW20 ????????????#NAOMIAFRICA."
