Jim Ikye has always been one with something up his sleeves. He’s done it with his movies and now a clothing line! Over time, we have seen Nollywood celebrities veer into music and fashion, Jim Iyke and Genevieve Nnaji included. The branch into fashion is a bit surprising but more surprising is the name of the clothing line “Untamed Closet.” Just when we thought Jim Iyke was trying to change his image in Nollywood, (given many find it hard to separate him from his characters on screen), he goes and gives his clothing line the name “Untamed.” The name is good for business but it is also a name that further brands the untamed and flaring roles he plays in his movies. Don’t complain Jim Iyke when people say that is who you are off screen.
