BEVERLY HILLS, March 30, (THEWILL) – Popular fashion entrepreneur, Toyin Lawani, has come under social media fire for the outfit she wore to a movie premiere over the weekend.
Toyin shared pictures on her Instagram account where she wore a racy nun outfit with a double slit on the sides running waist down to reveal her thighs.
This development sparked reactions as many social media users appeared unhappy with Toyin’s idea of a Catholic-themed fashion wear, and took to their social media accounts to berate her.
