artistic creativity took center stage in Lagos recently after the Lagos Fashion Week shows. The three-day event was a rollercoaster of glamor and glitz, with style stars gracing the streets and red carpets with exotic style displays. Designers and their muses ditched everyday clothes and turned to elaborate couture, in tune with the already cheerful atmosphere. It seemed that the city of Lasgidi had been infected with the exciting fashion bug, and that trickled down to other events. Even though the LFW shows are over, we’re still getting serial slay JPEGs on the Gram, and we hope that doesn’t end anytime soon.
Check out amazing looks from Naija fashionistas at the Lagos Fashion Week shows and other events…
#1. White separates
Ini Dima Okojie’s outfit was a testament to the power of simplicity. The sophisticated two-piece from The Bloom by FBD exuded an ethereal aura that enhanced the actress’ attitude. The combination of white cropped blouse with spaghetti straps and maxi skirt is a relaxed look for every day when you want to radiate an understated appearance. The green Balenciaga mini bag and gold jewelry added color for a touch of fun.
#2. Lavender luxury
Bold colors like neon, orange, red and lavender have been in the spotlight lately and haven’t softened up. Style Influencer, Olivia Arukwe jumped on this bandwagon of shades and put her individualistic spin on this craze. For the Lagos Fashion Week show, she paraded in Emmy Kasbit, and there is no doubt that this fashion choice suited the theme and her style.
The lavender coordination consisted of a crop top with spaghetti straps, a midi pencil skirt with a high slit, geometric prints and fringes, finished with a chic jacket. She continued the colorful story with bright yellow sandals, white sunglasses and a black and gold bag.
#3. Black noise
Idia Aisien outfit for the ATAFO show during Lagos Fashion Week told us she came to conquer. Her all-black ensemble consisted of a top underneath an ATAFO blazer, which she paired with matching shorts, sexy tights and pumps. For accessories, the actress opted for oversized sunglasses, a mini bag and piles of jewelry.
#4. Leather outer diameter
Nonye Udeogu makes us reconsider wearing an all-leather outfit in Lagos. The fashion content creator was spotted at the Lagos Fashion Week show wearing a deep brown Tuscan leather jacket and trousers. The rich hue of her outfit perfectly complemented her latte skin and evoked an oh-so intriguing glow. She completed the look with matching boots, oversized sunglasses and a mini bag. If you’re considering recreating this look, you can swap one or more leather pieces for a lightweight fabric.
#5. Blue-tiful set
Talented designer, Sandra Tubobereni is known for creating bold pieces with interesting details. In a recent appearance, she continued her mission in a chic blue coordination. She wore an oversized blazer over her brand’s fringed skirt that ticked all the boxes. She paired the outfit with a blue clutch, PVC heels and understated slay culture jewelry.
#6. Pure flow
Omowummi Onalaja was a pure sensation in an elegant yet sexy combo. The actor and media personality wore a light green, transparent outfit at the Toast With Moet event in honor of World Champagne Day. To elevate the look, she opted for gold strappy heels and a fuchsia pink handbag.
#7. REDy swirls
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you a queen of exotic and opulent styles: Chioma Ikokwu. Dressed as a West African version of an Egyptian goddess, the reality TV star was a sight to see in a strapless maroon dress by Weiz Dhurm Franklin. The gown boasted a sweetheart neckline, a corset-like bodice, silver swirls on each bust and long fringe embellishments that ran from the waist to the floor. She completed the glamorous look with a matching Birkin bag and pumps.
