Chris Aire Opens Boutique in Abuja

A bizarre mix of pop stars, oil moguls and politicians swigged champagne and danced into the night in Nigeria's capital at a launch party for Chris Aire, Nigerian jewellery designer to the stars, nicknamed "The King of Bling."

On Tuesday night, Aire launched his first boutique in Africa's most populous nation, where many live on less than $2 a day, allowing the growing number of Nigeria's super-rich to access diamond jewellery worn by top U.S. stars like Oprah Winfrey, Clint Eastwood and Angelina Jolie.




The red carpet was rolled out at the most expensive hotel in Abuja, in a rare event for Nigeria. U.S. rapper Shaggy flew in to mix with Nigerian music favorites 2face and Duncan Mighty and dozens of models and businessmen at an exclusive party.



The Chris Aire Concept Boutique is located inside Transcorp Hilton, Abuja.
