Ini Edo attended the premiere of ‘Michael Jackson’ and referenced Michael Jackson’s signature hat and styling . “How I attended the private screening of Michael (The Legacy Room) this evening. I thought… what other way to honour this iconic character but to pull up in MJ’s signature hat game and jacket paired with indigenous pair of gorgeous pants by Chidimma Fashion. I believe I clocked this look” she captioned.

The Nile Entertainment hosted the high-profile gathering  in collaboration with Universal Pictures and Nigerian music icon Mr. P (Peter Okoye). The event took place on April 19, 2026, at EbonyLife Place in Victoria Island, Lagos. The screening brought together 24 notable figures and several Nollywood stars to celebrate Jackson’s impact on music and film before the movie’s official nationwide release on April 22. While most celebrities arrived in varied looks, Ini chose to represent the essence of the event through her outfit.

She went for an Afro-western inspired look. She wore an indigenous pair of Nanya barrel pants from Chidimma Fashion.

The high-waisted design features a voluminous shape and fringe detailing along the outer seams, adding movement and texture to the bold woven fabric. Ini wore a tailored black cropped blazer. The sharp, structured shoulders add a sharp finish that keeps it current.

She completes the outfit with a Western twist. She layered the look with a black cowboy hat featuring crystal-fringe brims.

For accessories, she pairs it with black pointed-toe pumps and a small, structured Valentino Locò handbag. Her earrings were silver-toned drop earrings, and carried a Valentino Locò clutch and wore silver-toned rings. She completed her look with a pair of black sunglasses.

Ini Edo reflected the event in her outfit. She traded her usual figure-hugging styles for structured indigenous tailoring.

“May your day be as bright as these pictures” Chinenye Nnebe says in her latest Instagram post. Instead of those dramatic gowns we often see on celebrities, she went for a monochromatic short-suit that feels both professional and laid-back. Its a bright, fresh look that shows her growing style influence.

She wore a pale yellow short-suit that balanced structure with ease. The oversized blazer had a sharp, padded shoulders and a single black button. Instead of trousers, she paired it with matching wide-leg bermuda shorts cut just above the knee. By wearing the blazer without a top underneath, she created a deep neckline that draws focus to her jewelry. Her hair was styled in a jet-black, chin-length bob with a straight middle part that framed her face. She wore natural makeup with warm earthy tones, and a nude lip.

Her accessories are where she played with contrast. She layered chunky white pearls in varying lengths, filling the open neckline. To offset the tailoring, she added a yellow LA Dodgers baseball cap. She added white cat-eye sunglasses and a yellow mini-handbag. For her feet, she chose pointed-toe white slingback heels that complements her pearls and glasses.

What sets this apart is the unexpected pairings that work. A baseball cap with a tailored blazer set, Bermuda shorts with heels, and layered pearls. Its a different direction from her all-black look she wore on February 12, where she leaned into a darker, sharper shade in a black blazer, wide-leg trousers, a fedora, and a quilted Chanel bag.This yellow outfit is brighter and more playful, but both look reply on the same confident styling approach.

The long-anticipated Michael Jackson biopic, “Michael,” finally premiered in Lagos on April 20, 2026, at the EbonyLife Cinema, and as expected, the stars came out in full swing and Liquorose was one of them. Known for her incredible dance moves, the former BBNaija star delivered a proper tribute to the King of Pop. She arrived in a bold outfit inspired by the sparkling blue beaded shirt and rhinestone-encrusted look Michael Jackson famously wore on stage during his 1984 “Victory Tour”, particularly at the time of his legendary performances at Dodger Stadium.

Liquorose wore a crisp white button-down shirt with a deep V-neckline. It had two pleated, bib-like panels on the chest that gave off a classic tuxedo feel. The sleeves were the real highlight, left uncuffed and unbottoned, easing the shirt’s formal lines. She paired it with high-waisted, slim-cut trousers that were completely covered in shimmering blue and black sequins. Her makeup included warm tones, a smoky eye and a nude glossy lip. Her hair was styled in a smooth, shoulder-length bob and a clean side part with the ends flipped out slightly for a retro touch.

Liquorose accessorized her look with a low-slung, silver rhinestone-encrusted belt which featured a sharp gold buckle. For jewellery, she wore small stud earrings. For footwear, she chose metallic silver pointed-toe pumps that matched the belt. Liquorose didn’t start out as a style icon, she started as a dancer. She knows what it means to perform, and what Michael Jackson represents in that world.
