With summer in season, Nigerian celebrities are making the most of it. From Bali to Monaco, the photos landing on their pages this season have been worth every second of the scroll.

A closer look at celebrity vacation style this season.

Venita Akpofure – Bali

Venita chose full cultural immersion in Bali wearing a traditional Balinese outfit. She wore a strapless, one-shoulder wrap bodice in purple and pink, sitting above a bright purple wrapped skirt covered in intricate gold-threaded floral patterns. A lime green and gold textured sash pulled tight at the waist held everything together. On top, a golden crown with filigree details and fresh flowers, a matching folding fan, heavy gold bangles, and a decorative brooch pinned to the shoulder wrap.

Chioma Ikokwu – Monte Carlo

In Monte Carlo Chioma arrived at Hotel de Paris in a sleeveless A-line mini gown printed in a geometric black-and-white wavy lattice pattern with a scooped neckline. A Louis Vuitton scarf tied under her chin like the 1960s Riviera fashion, cat-eye sunglasses, gold bangles, a white quilted leather Chanel handbag with a top handle, and white pointed-toe slingback heels with fishnet paneling at the front rounded the whole thing out.

Dabota Lawson – Positano, Italy

Dabota Lawson visited Positano for her birthday. She wore a pristine white bodycon dress with a ruched torso, soft hip folds and an asymmetric draped off-the-shoulder neckline. For accessories, Lawson went with a vintage-style headscarf tied under the chin which had a bold black-and-white border design, paired with white-rimmed square sunglasses with dark lenses. She carried an elongated leather clutch in a vibrant pastel yellow. For jewellery, she wore a silver bracelet and a wristwatch on her right wrist.

Chika Ike – Positano, Italy

Chika was also in Positano, at the Amalfi Coast. She wore a sleeveless hot pink long gown with a faux-wrap V-neckline and ruffled high-low hemline was her pick. She threw a multicoloured neck scarf loosely over her shoulders, topped it with a wide-brimmed straw sun hat trimmed with a pink and neon green ribbon around the crown, and kept jewellery simple with star-shaped earrings and a silver bracelet.

Simi Sanya – Seychelles

Simi traveled with her husband to Seychelles, wearing a sleeveless midi-length halter dress which had a classic red-and-white gingham print, a fitted bodice and a dramatic, asymmetric handkerchief hemline that created a fluid movement. Simi’s accessories included a structured rectangular clutch bag in a matching bold red colour, rectangular sunglasses with thick white frames. Her hair was styled in dark boho braids. She completed with white pointed-toe heels peeking out from beneath the draping hemline of the dress.

Thayor B – Cape Town, South Africa

Cape Town got a good look at Thayor B in a floor-length turquoise blue bodycon maxi dress. The deep plunging halter neckline, ruched hip detailing, and fabric drape running down the front center made the dress hard to miss. A white novelty hardcase clutch shaped like a seashell and stacked bangles finished things off.

Dorothy Bachor

Dorothy was photographed in an all-yellow two-piece pairing a front-knotted short-sleeve shirt with a tiered maxi skirt. Large gold hoop earrings, a black quilted Chanel bag, and bangles were her accessories of choice. Her natural curly hair sat well against the look, and the harbour stretching out behind her made the whole photo land differently.

Jackie Appiah

Ghanaian actress Jackie Appiah choosed an all white look. A ruffled off-shoulder crop top paired with flared flowy skirt, and she carried a woven Loewe basket bag. Flat sandals, oversized sunglasses, and a long garden path behind her did the rest. Nothing felt forced about it.

Priscilla Ojo – Guangzhou, China

Pricilla also travelled to China with her husband. She wore a bright yellow ribbed tank top layered with a muted olive green sweater tied effortlessly around her shoulders. She paired it with high-waisted, light-wash wide-leg denim jeans with distressed detailing on the thigh. Priscilla enhanced her outfit a bright yellow top-handle bag with minimalist hardware that matched her top from her brand and a chain necklace and several rings. Her hair was worn in blonde boho braids. She finished it off with a pastel yellow, round-toe ballet flats.

The trips were already worth talking about. The styling gave people something extra to look at.

Tems and Kim Kardashian Coordinate in Dark Shades for SKIMS Launch

Tems and Kim Kardashian posed together at the celebration for SKIMS‘ new flagship store on Regent Street in London on September 18, 2026.

Tems wore a black strapless dress with a thin beaded trim across the top and a skirt that fell straight down to her ankles. She wore her hair in a half-up curly style, added drop earrings and a bracelet, and wore a dark plum lip colour.

While on the other hand, Kim wore a chocolate brown leather dress with a corset-style top and lace-up detail running down one side of the skirt. Grommets lined the opening diagonally, and the dress was fitted at the waist. Tems’ dress stayed flat through the fabric, while Kim’s had more structure built into the top half, with the leather giving it a harder texture than the soft material Tems wore.

Here, the two dresses appeared together without clashing. Both women kept their outfits dark and fitted, with no bright colour or print in either look.

The photos were taken at the opening of SKIMS’ first flagship store outside the United States, a two-floor space designed by Rafael de Cárdenas that included a large sculpture by artist Vanessa Beecroft near the entrance. Kim co-founded SKIMS with Jens Grede in 2019, and the London store opened during London Fashion Week on a ten-year lease with the Crown Estate. Guests were served cocktails and food, with a DJ set from model Kim Turnbull before a private dinner later in the night.

Tems was among the guests at the event, along with other names from music and fashion, including Central Cee, Troye Sivan, Kim Petras, Ellie Bamber, and designer Kim Jones. SKIMS has said it plans to open more than 100 stores worldwide by 2027.

Ini Edo traveled to Abuja to celebrate her big brother Captain Ekong’s 60th birthday, and she showed up dressed for the occasion. She captioned the post “Captain Ekong @60,” adding that since she was celebrating a fashionista, she “had to bring a little extra spice.”

Photo: Instagram/@iniedo

Her dress, designed by Becca Needles N Stitches and styled by Henry Sklue, was made from deep red fabric covered from top to bottom in a diamond-patterned crystal lattice. It featured a floor-length mermaid cut, fitted through the body with an asymmetric one-shoulder tie, then flared into a long train that pooled at her feet.

Her hair was styled in a smooth, bone-straight, middle-parted look keeping the focus on her face and the neckline of the dress. For Jewellry, she went with rings and a bracelet, with a matching Lujah purse rounding off the outfit. Photography was by Benny Shot It.

Some time back, for a shoot promoting her film, she wore a black high-slit dress with curly hair and sunglasses beside a vintage blue Camaro, captioned “Something to watch this weekend.”

Ayra Starr just landed her first movie role in Children of Blood and Bone, and she marked the moment at New York Fashion Week in a sheer royal-purple LaQuan Smith maxi dress for the film’s event, captioning the photos “Feeling purple in LaQuan Smith x Children of Blood and Bone.”

The dress had a sheer bodice built into a high-neck silhouette, with the strap draped asymmetrically over one shoulder. The gown ran into a thigh-high slit running down one leg, with the sheer fabric continuing to the floor. She kept accessories minimal, just silver drop earrings and a small purple bag.

Her hair was worn down in soft, straight strands. Her makeup featured magenta and purple tones, finished with a glossy ombre lip, and she completed the look with strappy heels.

The event tied into Tomi Adeyemi’s Children of Blood and Bone universe, where she also features on the soundtrack alongside Fireboy DML, and BNXN. The film, directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood and produced by Paramount Pictures, is set for release on January 15, 2027.

A few days earlier, Ayra met with New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani in New York. She wore a vintage Azzedine Alaïa striped bodycon mini dress from the designer’s 1992 collection, with an off-shoulder neckline and a geometric knit border along the top. The photos were taken in front of a white fireplace mantel with a model ferry placed on top, and she captioned the post simply “Mr Mamdani.”
