Bimbo Ademoye Puts a Casual Spin on Blazer
Bimbo Ademoye effortlessly combines unconventional pieces. Her latest look flips the script by leaning into a sharper, more experimental silhouette. Known for her versatility on screen, Ademoye brings that same versatile style to her wardrobe. Her latest look of pairing a blazer with culottes denim which she shared with us on her Instagram, on March 20, 2026.

Bimbo was photographed by Nathan Godstime in a tailored blazer with a deep neckline and tailored to narrow at the waist for a sharp hourglass effect. For bottoms, she paired the blazer with dark navy blue culottes denim. The contrast between the nipped-in blazer and the culottes is what makes the whole look work.
Bimbo’s hair was styled by Laidbyt in a straight honey-blonde wig that contrasted against the dark shade of her outfit. Her makeup, by Glambymorgan, included warm tones, glossy lip and a contoured finish.

She accessorized her look with a black Dior Saddle bag with its signature Gold ‘D’, adding a touch of luxury to the denim. She also wore minimalist gold rings and oval-shaped gold-rimmed sunglasses. The sunglasses had a retro, late-90s style. For shoes, she went with Maison Margiela black leather Tabi mules.
Each piece was carefully chosen, and that just says a lot about Bimbo’s styling ability.
