The Nollywood actress shared photos from the occasion on her Instagram with a heartfelt message for the celebrant. “How I stepped out to celebrate a Mother, Therealitagiwa, a real matriarch at 80. She’s an embodiment of grace and a true fashionista. Here is to celebrating more years in glamour and good health. Thank you for always being there for me. Making me the Queen of the Calabar Carnival at such an early age was definitely a boost for my personality. I love you today and always Mummy. Happiest 80th birthday to MAMA BAkassi”.

Tiwa Savage is not slowing down. The Queen of Afrobeats recently hit 800 million streams on Spotify and launched her own music foundation to support and mentor the next generation of African artists. That extends to her music is the same one she brings to her fashion choices. Her style has leaned into bolder styling over the years, and her latest look which she shared on Instagram on April 9, 2026, with the caption “She doesn’t step out, but when she does it’s a moment”.

Tiwa wore an avant-garde black floor-length gown that had a high neckline and long sleeves, creating a covered upper half that contrasts sharply to the lower half. Over the dress she layered it with a bolero jacket with hundreds of layers of 3D florals. In addition the dress had a thigh-high slit that gave it a modern touch.

For accessories, Tiwa chose gold statement pieces including two wide gold cuffs on her wrists, rings on her fingers, and gold drop earrings. She styled the look with a micro Fendi Baguette bag in gold. Her shoes were black pointed-toe heels with gold tips. Tiwa’s hair was styled in her signature pixie curls and her makeup included warm tones and a nude lip.

This is not her first major appearance this year. Back in March, she walked the MOBO Awards red carpet in a structured off-the-shoulder gown covered in 3D silver metallic tiles. This one is the complete opposite, all black, clean lines, a thigh-high slit, and gold accessories were precisely selected. Both look had one thing in common, they were both tightly constructed.

It is a completely different direction from the white off-the-shoulder corseted gown she wore to “The Return Of Arinzo” premiere just days earlier, and that contrast says allot about her personal style. She can go from sculptural bridal white to warm brown grunge, and both times, the looks felt well thought through.

Hawa Magaji’s Easter outfit moves between leisurewear and a more styled approach to dressing. She reworked sports shorts into a considered outfit, pairing them with an oversized blazer, a structured bag, and Adidas Samba sneakers. In her caption, she noted, “just stepped out for air and a little attention.”

Magaji wore a sleeveless white bodycon top tucked into mint green sports shorts from Viorge Circle. The fitted top sits close to the body and balances the proportions of the look. The neckline sits just below the collarbone. The shorts fall to mid-thigh, allowing ease while maintaining a defined shape. A drawstring waistband shapes the waist without restricting the fit.

She layered a white blazer over the top and left it open. The blazer’s shoulders extend toward the wrists, while the hem falls around mid-thigh, sitting in line with the length of the shorts.
Hawa wore her hair in a curled bun, gathered and pinned at the back. The style keeps the face and neck open, with a few curled strands left loose around the face.

She completed the look with Adidas Samba sneakers. The green stripe on the shoes follows the mint tone of the shorts, matching the outfit

She kept accessories minimal. Rectangular sunglasses sit across the face, with gold detailing at the bridge and temples. Crescent-shaped earrings sit close to the jawline.

On her wrist, she wore a silver-toned bracelet watch with a linked strap. She carried a white mini bag with laser-cut detailing. The bag follows the white tones of the top and blazer while introducing a slight variation in texture.
