Cultural Futurism Steals the Show at The Serpent’s Gift Premiere with Linda Ejiofor-Suleiman, Beverley Osu & More

Published

If there’s anything Nollywood stars are good at, it is making sure they show up elegantly while representing our culture.

At the premiere of “The Serpent Gift,” the cast turned the red carpet into their own runway for cultural futurism.

There were bold headpieces, prints inspired by ancestral heritage, and sculptural tailoring.

Each of them showed that our tradition is here to stay and remains a defining force in contemporary style.

Linda Ejiofor-Sulieman

The lead actress, Linda Ejiofor-Suleiman, wore a shiny gold and purple traditional outfit. She paired it with a feathered fan, a gold purse, pearl bracelets, and a striking pearl-embellished headpiece.

Beverly Osu

Beverley Osu followed in a pristine white wrapper and blouse, styled with bold coral beads and a regal headpiece that completed her cultural look.

Kayode Kasum

The men also embraced cultural futurism. Director Kayode Kasum stepped out in a deep red velvet jacket with fine gold detailing, paired with crisp white trousers and brown leather shoes.

Ibrahim Sulieman

Ibrahim Sulieman graced the event in a vibrant traditional outfit with vertical stripes in purple, gold, black, and pink. He also wore a black hat that added a touch of gold. Each appearance reflected careful attention to cultural detail.

The film itself made a powerful impression. Set in Eastern Nigeria, it tells the story of Ijeoma, a widow whose husband dies unexpectedly.

She’s caught in a battle over his inheritance and must fight to protect what’s hers. The movie is filled with betrayal, tradition, and justice through the lens of Igbo culture.

Directed by Kayode Kasum and produced by Winifred Nkiry Mena Ajakpyi, it highlights the strength of women in the face of adversity. Other cast members include Stan Nze, Tina Mba, Ric Hassani.

At the premiere, Kayode Kasum explained that the film is for anyone you loves drama, culture, and cinema that resonates emotionally, then this is for you.

In the end, the premiere mixed traditional Igbo designs with modern fashion. This matched the movie’s message about balancing old traditions with new ways of life. The cast’s outfits didn’t just look good—they helped tell the story of culture, identity, and heritage.

Shaffy Bello Turned 55 in Two Custom Couture Dresses

Published

on

Shaffy Bello turned 55 with two high fashion dresses from Lady Beellionaire Luxury the kind that demand a double take and leave a lasting impression. Each look was a dialogue between strength and softness, drama and delicate bloom.

Look One: The Plaid Silhouette

For the first look, Shaffy wore a custom gown with patterned checks, sharp shoulders, and a wide, exaggerated collar. The structured, full sleeves fell dramatically, ending in a sweep with her fingers almost concealed. The drape design on the skirt and the brooch details perfectly placed gave it strong presence.

In terms of beauty, a red lip, side-parted hair, a swept-back style, and simple studs that balanced well with the dress.

Look Two: The Blooming Rose

The second outfit, a pink dress, reflected her caption “In Full Bloom at 55.” The whole silhouette was in the form of flower petals chiffon-like, voluminous, and layered. Every fold and curve shaped like a petal, resembling a blossom opening.

Shaffy shifted the beauty style in this one. The makeup was bold with a nude lip, and the hair was swept into an upward bun so the blossom shape could bloom fully.

Mimi Yina stepped into Monday with intention, choosing a sculptural white abaya from her Medlin Couture line. Styled by the designer herself, the piece balanced volume and exactness, its clean lines offering presence without excess

Accessories were minimal but carefully thought out. A pearl-beaded handbag added texture against the smooth finish of the fabric, while layered pearls at the neck gave the look detail without distraction. The styling stayed with one shade, ensuring that details not colour did the talking.

Beauty followed the same line of thought. Makeup by Beauty by Chinnabel focused more on definition and warmth, while her pixie cut by Patrick’s Beauty Zone was styled soft and clean, matching the structured outline of the outfit. Captured by Wale Visuals, the result was an image less about surface and more about presence: a study in how tailoring and control can elevate even the simplest of colours.
