Priscilla wore a yellow Farin Collection dress to the Bozdiamond event, and only the colour made a striking appearance. The dress had a halter neck that frames her shoulders in a clean, simple, shape. There was a nothing extra on it.

From the waist down, the dress flowed into layered ruffles that go all the way to the floor. The ruffles added movement and it did not overwhelm the outfit. They all sat neat in levels that make the gown appear well-built and intentional.

She completed the look with a wide white hat that gave the outfit a crisp, fresh edge. The hat was not there to overcome the outfit, it elevated it.

Her accessories followed the same calm style. She chose a green beaded handbag that gave a small but noticeable contrast. The gold pieces on her wrist, neck, and ear are simple enough to stay quietly while still adding their own uniqueness. To crown it all up, the yellow colour complemented her smooth shining skin.

Priscilla Ojo: Instagram

What makes the outfit is how tidy the entire outfit feels. The colours did not clash, the pieces did not compete, and nothing appeared like it was added last minute. It shows that she really paid attention to the styling.

The Farin Collection made a beautiful dress, but it’s Priscilla’s calm and steady way of wearing it with her star personality that completes the picture. She doesn’t try to force anything, she just allows it to speak for itself.
