Dede Ashiogwu arrived at the Big Brother Naija reunion in a full denim outfit from Ewongho and gave us a reminder why her name keeps coming up on our timeline. The reality star and influencer posted a series of photos on Instagram with the caption “Muah, No bars”and her outfit was worth give a double stare.

At the reunion, Dede wore an oversized long denim trench coat with dropped shoulders, wide lapels, and extra-long billowy sleeves with buttoned cuffs. Underneath, she paired it with matching acid-wash denim bralette with a plunging V-neckline and structural seaming. Her bottoms were high-waisted, wide-leg denim trousers which had a floor-grazing length that blended into the coat’s hem.

Her only accessory was the same shade denim choker necklace and her hair was worn in a black bone-straight textured bob wig with a clean center part. Her glam consisted of soft deep brown smoky eyeshadow paired with a sharp, black winged eyeliner, well shaped eyebrows, and ombré lip with a dark brown lip liner blended into a glossy, nude-pink center. Her shoes were fully concealed beneath the floor-sweeping, wide-leg trousers.

If you scroll back to her early March Euphoria Lounge post captioned “Golden hour looks good when I’m in it,” Dede had on a soft yellow one-shoulder gown with a flowing sleeve, styled simple and light with strappy crystal heels and a white Louis Vuitton bag. That outfit was easy and calm. This one goes the other way, swapping the soft yellow for bold acid-wash denim and trading a simple dress for a heavier, more layered look.

With summer in season, Nigerian celebrities are making the most of it. From Bali to Monaco, the photos landing on their pages this season have been worth every second of the scroll.

A closer look at celebrity vacation style this season.

Venita chose full cultural immersion in Bali wearing a traditional Balinese outfit. She wore a strapless, one-shoulder wrap bodice in purple and pink, sitting above a bright purple wrapped skirt covered in intricate gold-threaded floral patterns. A lime green and gold textured sash pulled tight at the waist held everything together. On top, a golden crown with filigree details and fresh flowers, a matching folding fan, heavy gold bangles, and a decorative brooch pinned to the shoulder wrap.

In Monte Carlo Chioma arrived at Hotel de Paris in a sleeveless A-line mini gown printed in a geometric black-and-white wavy lattice pattern with a scooped neckline. A Louis Vuitton scarf tied under her chin like the 1960s Riviera fashion, cat-eye sunglasses, gold bangles, a white quilted leather Chanel handbag with a top handle, and white pointed-toe slingback heels with fishnet paneling at the front rounded the whole thing out.

Dabota Lawson visited Positano for her birthday. She wore a pristine white bodycon dress with a ruched torso, soft hip folds and an asymmetric draped off-the-shoulder neckline. For accessories, Lawson went with a vintage-style headscarf tied under the chin which had a bold black-and-white border design, paired with white-rimmed square sunglasses with dark lenses. She carried an elongated leather clutch in a vibrant pastel yellow. For jewellery, she wore a silver bracelet and a wristwatch on her right wrist.

Chika was also in Positano, at the Amalfi Coast. She wore a sleeveless hot pink long gown with a faux-wrap V-neckline and ruffled high-low hemline was her pick. She threw a multicoloured neck scarf loosely over her shoulders, topped it with a wide-brimmed straw sun hat trimmed with a pink and neon green ribbon around the crown, and kept jewellery simple with star-shaped earrings and a silver bracelet.

Simi traveled with her husband to Seychelles, wearing a sleeveless midi-length halter dress which had a classic red-and-white gingham print, a fitted bodice and a dramatic, asymmetric handkerchief hemline that created a fluid movement. Simi’s accessories included a structured rectangular clutch bag in a matching bold red colour, rectangular sunglasses with thick white frames. Her hair was styled in dark boho braids. She completed with white pointed-toe heels peeking out from beneath the draping hemline of the dress.

Cape Town got a good look at Thayor B in a floor-length turquoise blue bodycon maxi dress. The deep plunging halter neckline, ruched hip detailing, and fabric drape running down the front center made the dress hard to miss. A white novelty hardcase clutch shaped like a seashell and stacked bangles finished things off.

Dorothy was photographed in an all-yellow two-piece pairing a front-knotted short-sleeve shirt with a tiered maxi skirt. Large gold hoop earrings, a black quilted Chanel bag, and bangles were her accessories of choice. Her natural curly hair sat well against the look, and the harbour stretching out behind her made the whole photo land differently.

Ghanaian actress Jackie Appiah choosed an all white look. A ruffled off-shoulder crop top paired with flared flowy skirt, and she carried a woven Loewe basket bag. Flat sandals, oversized sunglasses, and a long garden path behind her did the rest. Nothing felt forced about it.

Priscilla Ojo – Guangzhou, China

Pricilla also travelled to China with her husband. She wore a bright yellow ribbed tank top layered with a muted olive green sweater tied effortlessly around her shoulders. She paired it with high-waisted, light-wash wide-leg denim jeans with distressed detailing on the thigh. Priscilla enhanced her outfit a bright yellow top-handle bag with minimalist hardware that matched her top from her brand and a chain necklace and several rings. Her hair was worn in blonde boho braids. She finished it off with a pastel yellow, round-toe ballet flats.

The trips were already worth talking about. The styling gave people something extra to look at.

“Grace in my heart, pressure in my presence” those were the words Sophia Egbueje captioned her latest Instagram post. The model posted some photos from her trip to Croatia in a tangerine set that felt read at a statement-driven edit.

Sophia decided to work orange. She had on a bright bikini set with a structured underwire balconette top, thin straps, and a high-cut thong bottom that cut up on the hips. Later on the same trip, she stepped out in a one-shoulder satin midi dress in a deeper shade of burnt orange, with an asymmetric neckline, a thigh slit, and a long fabric sash falling down the side.

Her accessories were minimal, a neutral-toned woven straw bucket hat, a structured tan leather mini top-handle handbag featuring gold hardware details, stud earrings and gold bracelets. Her makeup included a soft brown eyeshadow and a highly lined ombre glossy nude lip. Sophia’s hair was worn in dark long Hollywood waves that fell down her shoulders. She was barefoot.

Sophia is a Lagos-based model, socialite, and entrepreneur. She studied Accounting at Covenant University and has since built a growing presence across fashion and social media, where audiences follow her style moments closely.

Sophia has frequently been seen in bikinis, with each appearance carrying a unique styling direction. Back in March, she was in Zanzibar rocking a baby blue triangle bikini, string-tied and charm-detailed, and Croatia just raised the bar.
