Her style is edgy, fearless, and packed with a chic sophistication that any fashion lover can appreciate.

Sophia’s black jumpsuit look is anything but ordinary. This sleek one-piece combines textures in a unique way: from the waist down, it’s all about glossy, eye-catching black leather, giving it a bold vibe. But the twist comes with the upper half—transparent sleeves add a delicate touch, and the “X” design along the neckline makes it instantly unforgettable.

Paired with a classic black handbag, this look is a mix of edgy and sophisticated, perfect for an evening out when you want to stand out without saying a word. If you love adding texture to your wardrobe, this is a style worth exploring.

2. The Bold Black Long-Sleeve Jumpsuit

Next up, Sophia rocks a sultry, long-sleeved black jumpsuit with a daring, wide cut at the chest. This design offers a balance between classy and bold, creating an eye-catching statement that’s sophisticated without going overboard. Paired with black heels, it’s the perfect outfit for a night on the town, an upscale event, or whenever you want to channel that extra bit of confidence.

This look works especially well for those who like to keep things simple yet impactful, and it shows how a classic black outfit can be reinvented with just a few bold cuts and choices.

Sophia brings versatility to her black wardrobe with a long black cardigan paired with a high-waisted leather skirt, completing the look with black heeled boots. This outfit proves that black can be just as dramatic in layers. The cardigan’s flowy silhouette contrasts with the sleek, structured leather skirt, creating a balance that’s both effortless and edgy.

Perfect for cooler days or a stylish city look, this combo lets you play with layers while keeping a chic monochrome theme. With Sophia’s styling inspiration, this look can be a go-to for anyone looking to bring a bit of elegance into their every day attire.

So whether you already have styles you rock or don’t really have a thing for black, Sophia shows us how to not just wear black but how to wear it in style!

Each Sunday this BBNaija season 11, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu comes out in something new. No repeats so far.

He has moved between sharp Western suits and full traditional wear all season. One week its a tailored double-breasted jacket with a two-tone gradient finish, the next its a flowing agbada with embroidery running down the sleeves.

The details are worth highlighting too. There’s a graphic maize motif stitched into a sky-blue suit, silver lattice sequin work on a black wrapper, and geometric patterns worked into denim fabric on an agbada. Several Nigerian designers have dressed him this season, including Mai Atafo, Deji & Kola, Ugo and Lisa Folawiyo.

He has also added extras to a few of the looks: a crystal-handled horsetail whip, layers of coral neck beads, sunglasses and a Louis Vuitton duffel bag.

He opened the season on July 26, 2026, in a charcoal-to-off-white ombré double-breasted suit by Mai Atafo. The colour fading from dark at the shoulders to almost white by the ankle. He finished with a large black lapel bow and patent shoes

On August 9, 2026, he appeared on BBNaija in another look by Mai Atafo, this time in a black-and-white outfit built from a cropped boxy jacket, wide-legged trousers, and a tie trimmed with pearls, and accessorized with a Louis Vuitton Keepall bag.

Most recently, on September 6, 2026, he hosted the eviction show in a forest-green two-piece suit by Deji & Kola, worn under a windowpane trench coat lined in a floral print. He paired it with brown shades and matching leather shoes.

Season 11 still has weeks to go, and if Ebuka’s run so far is anything to go by, there are plenty more looks to come.

Sharon Ooja attended the Lagos premiere of “19” in a sheer, ruffled leopard print gown. She captioned the post, “Giving leopard vibes.”

She wore a floor-length sheer leopard print dress with a high cutout at the front and ruffled layers falling all the way down to the floor. She used minimal accessories light: a pair of small hoop earrings and thin gold bangles on one wrist, plus a small black quilted clutch.

Her hair, styled by Adefunke, was pulled back into a low bun and wrapped in a matching leopard print headscarf. Sharon’s makeup was done by Annabel’s Glam in warm tones, with nude, glossy lips. She completed the look with black strappy heels laced up to her calf.

In her caption, Sharon explained why the night was important to her. She was there to support her best friend, Bisola Aiyeola, who stars in “19,” a crime drama written and directed by Tola Odunsi and distributed by Nile Entertainment. Sharon said she was proud of her and congratulated Tola Odunsi for bringing the story to the screen. “19” opens in cinemas nationwide this Friday, September 11.

Sharon also used the post to remind her followers that “Ordinary People,” the Netflix series she stars in alongside Ramsey Nouah, Adunni Ade, Chidi Mokeme, and Michelle Dede, is still streaming after its September 4 premiere.

She brought the same attention to detail to the “Ordinary People” premiere, where she wore a cream and white striped corset dress with a peplum waist and a bow tied above the hip.
