aking a bow is an art not many have mastered. Knowing how to exit a phase and make a triumphant entrance into a new one is another skill to covet. As we scurry to close the year on an upbeat note, Naija fashionistas have brought their slay game along because achieving your goals and having an adaptive sense of style aren’t mutually exclusive. Whether it was movie premieres, weddings, birthday shoots, award shows, or Lasgidi parties, coming correct has been the sartorial memo. And of course, the holidays spattered its spirits so these style stars had no choice but to rise to the occasion with solid wins and contemporary looks that please the eyes. The perfect blend!
Check out festive Naija celeb looks that pass the time check…
#1. Redy 2.0.2.4
A Christmas color that constantly redefines itself is red. Every year, we find creative and exciting ways to sport the hue unapologetically. Simply put, red is the hue that keeps giving. Nollywood actress Nancy Isime took to Instagram in a dashing red number to wish her followers a merry Christmas, and with a dress like that, Merry is the only option indeed. From the snatched corset to the elaborate bust details and red lipstick, this is one of the sleekest festive Naija celeb looks apt for a wedding guest.
#2. Boubou whites
Tiwa Savage snapped in a white rich Aunty Boubou, which she styled with matching shoes and a purse. Held into a sleek updo, her hair made room for her button earrings to enjoy a moment in the spotlight. This simple look with a sophisticated aura is proof that less is more.
#3. Sequins OD
Sequins and parties are that pair everyone has come to normalize, and the festivities deepen this conviction. It’s almost an unspoken rule to rock at least one sequin piece to a holiday gathering. Recently, Ini Dima-Okojie caught the holiday bug as she posed in a double-sequin outfit on Instagram featuring a beige sequin bralette and a high-waisted sequin wrap skirt. The high-slit skirt revealed golden strappy heels locked on gorgeous chocolatey legs. With this look, access denied at any New Year’s Eve party is impossible.

#4. Top tier Ankara
This Accost Collection dress on Comedienne Kie Kie is an Owambe special must-have. The tiered high-low hem and fusion of Ankara and embroidered gold fabric is a killer choice suitable for weddings, especially with the headgear.
#5. Bow details
Everything about this look spells holiday magic — the metallic details, a huge bow that could signify gift-giving, and the overall sassiness of an unconventional LBD. This black velvet and metallic gold number on fashion influencer Adaeze Onah, aka StyletitudebyAda, is the perfect look for a dinner date with your partner to remind them how much of a gift you are. I’ll be wrapping myself in this frock as a not-so-subtle reminder.
#6. Lacy white
There are only a few occasions when you can’t wear a white dress, but this festive season isn’t one of them. For the all-white Tony Elumelu Christmas party, Nigerian actress, Sharon Ooja opted for a delightful mini lacy dress that emphasized her frame. The deep neckline and the lacy accents told tales of dainty femininity. The actress paired the snazzy frock with silver-lined PVC heels and a sleek ponytail that played up the aesthetic. This is undoubtedly one of last week’s best festive Naija celeb looks.

#7. LBD charm
Always have a little black dress on speed dial — they are renowned for holding up to any style challenge. Chef Hilda Baci wore a Liv & Eve bespoke mini dress with PVC pumps and a black mini bag that advocated for understated elegance. For a lineup of day and night events, consider a figure-emphasizing dress with a few texture details to combat basic fashion.
