#1. Rich Aunty blues
The rich aunty vibe is an effortless way to spell out Black girl excellence with a hint of luxury and trust Toke Makinwa to always pass the theme test. This time she did so in a blue Wanni Fuga set that spoke sass fluently. The exaggerated top paired nicely with the baggy bottoms and overstated headband. The look delivered on luxury and effortlessness. On days when you’re heavy on dressing how you want to be addressed, slide into this outfit.
#2. Ankara snatched
African prints are Nancy Isime’s favorite thing. Recently, Isime was spotted in a Hollantex Ankara-print number hosting a cultural show. The dress featured ruffles on the sleeves, hem, and slit openings, accompanied by a deep neckline and her signature haircut.
#3. Sleek jumpsuits
In simplicity lies the language of superior style. A simple black jumpsuit with distinct details is a versatile wardrobe choice that always delivers. Nigerian media girl, Dorcas Ariyike Owolagba shone in a wide-leg black jumpsuit featuring crystal studs. She paired this with a mini black bag, also with embellishments, and finished off with dainty jewelry.
#4. Feathered minis
Julyet Peters’ Chloe suit has recently become a celebrity favorite piece, and with its interesting features, it’s easy to see why it is coveted. Actress Ini Dima-Okojie rocked hers with a matching hat, sunglasses, and embellished pumps to the A Tribe Called Judah movie premiere. The structured fit makes this look a solid choice for a snazzy semi-formal event.
#5. Extra black
When you dress on theme but inject your personality, that’s when you truly hit the mark. Fashion designer, Tolu Bally attended the A Tribe Called Judah movie premiere in a sheer black number with a train. The embellished dress and its padded shoulders rendered elegance to Bally’s befitting frame. When in doubt, wear black!
#6. Preppy neutrals
Schoolgirl fashion has been a mainstream trend for a minute, with Prada among the fashion houses at the hem of this fad. Stylish Nigerian influencer, Tracy Nwapa wore a mini pleated skirt with a complementary blouse on sheer tights and black platform heels for a preppy take on girly style. If you miss your college days, hop on this trend for some nostalgia.
#7. Oversized casuals
Nigerian fashionistas know how to make a casual look stand out — whether a regular jeans-and-tee combo or a simple oversized set. The mastery is in accessorizing. Ini Dima Okojie showed us how in a white Bloom by FBD pants set. The look featured wide hem bottoms, a bralette, and an oversized button-down shirt paired with a red mini bag for a dash of color. This is a simple and classy look for a casual brunch date.
