Toke Makinwa Layers the Perfect Oversized Graphic Tee Over a Fringe Skirt
Toke Makinwa was photographed at a night out wearing a chocolate brown oversized graphic tee from Kai Collective, layered over a rust-orange macramé net skirt, and captioned it “Category is African Baddie.” That caption was not a boast. It was a more of a description.

She wore a chocolate brown, oversized crewneck t-shirt that came with a large abstract graphic print on the front with curving blocks of pink, yellow, black, and white. The sleeves were casually rolled up to the mid-bicep. She paired it over a long, statement-making rust-orange macramé net skirt. The bottom featured an open fishnet weave that cascaded into a dense, heavy long fringe which swayed around her legs.

Her hair was styled in an ultra-straight center-parted blowout in warm brown shade. She had her makeup in warm earthy tones. For accessories, she carried a miniature beige woven top-handle bag featuring gold hardware accents from her brand Toke Makinwa Luxury and wore retro-inspired oversized round tortoiseshell sunglasses with dark gradient lenses. Jewellery-wise, she went with oversized gold filigree drop earrings in an elongated teardrop shape, paired with metallic cuff bracelets. Her shoes were minimalist, high-gloss blush pink patent leather open-toe mules with a simple platform and architectural heel.

Since returning to public life following the birth of her daughter Yakira Precious, Toke has been showing up at events and on social media with the same sharpness she has always carried. Getting dressed for Toke, has always looked like a decision, and this night out was no different.

Just weeks before this, in early May, she had worn a floor-length olive green metallic gown with an off-shoulder neckline, a thigh-high split, a fitted silhouette, and diamond jewellery from Akano Diamonds. Where that look was structured and body-hugging from top to hem, this one opened with a roomy graphic tee and moved into a loose, fringed skirt.
