Fans see the finished look when a female musician steps onto the stage, but Jowy Landa says getting there can be a whole production of its own.
The Ugandan singer, born Joan Namugerwa, opened up about what goes into preparing for a performance while speaking on Sanyuka Wardrobe at King Saha’s concert at Kololo Airstrip on August 14.
According to her, picking an outfit is only one part of the process.
There is wig installation. Then comes the makeup. Before an artist even decides what to wear, a designer may arrive with more than 20 different outfits to choose from.
For ladies, it is really complicated because there is wig installation. The designer brings clothes, over 20 outfits, and sometimes you do not understand them. Makeup. It is crazy. Female musicians really do invest in themselves.
So, with all those options on the table, how does she finally settle on one?
For Jowy Landa, the answer is simple.
They bring very many clothes, and you choose what you want.
By the time fans see the singer on stage, the outfit may look like just one part of the performance.
Behind it, however, is the process of preparing the hair, applying makeup and deciding which of the many looks will make the final cut.
