The top Nigerian fashion brand, Tubo, is undoubtedly one of the emblems of fierce and ultra-feminine styles, and perhaps, this explains why it has become a celebrity favourite.

One of its designs, the 'Impact dress' has continued to cause a buzz on and off social media, with the likes of Tiwa Savage and Lilian Esoro rocking the look.

First Tubo recreation

Well, with a style like this, recreated versions popping up is only a matter of time. One of the first to attempt this is the fashion house, Damian's Couture.

The brand recently shared photos of its own version of the design on social media.

In the photos shared, a model is seen in the replicated version of the look; only the corset on this look did not quite emphasize the waistline as seen in the original design.

The cups on the corset were also bedazzled, unlike the original look.
