3 Monochrome Looks that Shows Beverly Naya Owns Casual Chic

Published

on

When it comes to fashion, Beverly Naya never misses. The award-winning actress and filmmaker has long been admired for her graceful presence on screen, but her style off-screen is just as captivating. Known for her ability to blend simplicity with sophistication, Beverly’s fashion sense echoes her personality: elegant, intentional, and effortlessly cool.

Over the years, she’s explored various of styles, but one thing stands out consistently: her love for monochrome. Whether she’s dressed in striking black or a mix of black and white, Beverly makes it clear that looking stylish doesn’t always require loud prints or bold colors. Sometimes, the power lies in the simplicity of a single tone and how well it’s worn.

Here are three times Beverly Naya embodied monochrome casual chic and made it look absolutely effortless.

1. Pinafore Perfection — March 10, 2025

On a calm Monday, Beverly showed us how to begin the week in style. Posting a photo with the caption “dressed on Monday,” she stunned in a pinafore gown with a black exterior and a white inner layer. The youthful and modern silhouette of the dress gave off an effortless vibe, while her accessories added to the polished feel. She paired the outfit with black pop socks that gave it a trendy, street-style twist and finished the look with a clean white purse that popped against the darker tones.

Her curly virgin hair framed her face beautifully in a soft afro, while a tiny silver earring and matching bracelet subtly completed the ensemble. This look was stylish, wearable, and perfect for a casual day out—Beverly’s version of Monday motivation done right.

2. The Rose Effect — November 4, 2024

This look was poetry in motion. For a night that marked 25 years of extraordinary artistry with Tiffany Berng, Beverly dressed like a vision and later shared the evening with her NaijaNetflix family. Captioning the photo “You can call me rose,” she brought a soft drama to her look that felt luxurious without being over the top.

She wore a black gown tailored like a suit, structured yet graceful. At the hem, delicate Caribbean-style falls added flow and texture, softening the outfit’s strong silhouette. Her hair was pulled into a slicked-back style, adorned with a single rose flower, which also appeared as a statement detail on her black heels. It was the kind of look that speaks without saying a word—bold, stylish, and completely in control. Every element, from her soft glam makeup to the poetic symbolism of the rose, showed Beverly’s ability to turn a simple monochrome outfit into a red carpet-worthy moment.

3. Chic and Playful — October 29, 2024

With the caption “my best era,” Beverly reminded us all that being stylish can also be fun. In this all-black ensemble, she struck the perfect balance between edgy and feminine. She stepped out in a soft black chiffon shirt and a short black skirt that added a flirty, youthful vibe to her look. A subtle tie detail added just the right amount of edge, suggesting a preppy twist without compromising on elegance.

Her curly hair was styled into a soft bun, and a bold silver ring added sparkle to her hands. She held a stainless steel-inspired purse and wore shiny earrings that caught the light as she smiled. The look was effortlessly cool and modern—proving once again that Beverly knows how to own casual chic in her own unique way.

Conclusion

 

Beverly Naya’s fashion isn’t just about the clothes, it’s about expression. Whether she’s walking into a creative event, celebrating artistry with friends, or simply sharing a Monday mood with her followers, she dresses with intention and grace. These three monochrome looks aren’t just stylish; they’re masterclasses in how to keep things simple and still turn heads. Beverly doesn’t just wear outfits, she owns them. And with casual chic like this, it’s clear she’s in her best era indeed.

Lilly Afe gave us a perfect mash-up of soft elegance and cultural pride with her look, and honestly? It was a fashion sermon. She rocked a two-piece ensemble that looked like something straight out of a dreamy, seaside fashion fantasy. The top? A halter-neck made of pleated, sheer mint green fabric, delicate yet fitted, cinching the waist like a soft corset before falling gently.

She paired it with a crisp white rectangular bag and sleek pointed white heels peeking from under the skirt.

Beverly Naya does not miss, and she didn’t this time either. She stepped out in an olive green midi dress that whispered luxury in the classiest tone ever. The fabric looked buttery smooth, like something between silk and satin, and it hugged her figure like a custom dream. The neckline? A simple high cowl neck that said, “I don’t need to try hard.”

 

But the real spice was at the hem, soft fringe detailing in the same olive hue that swayed with her every move. It was the perfect little touch of playful glam. Add to that her off-white clutch, matching statement earrings, and a gold watch? Whew. This look was perfectly picked for her dinner date. Her hair was styled in a polished updo, and the vibe?

Spotted in a photoshoot, Prudent came through looking like a walking piece of modern art on her very own design from her brand, and we loved it! Her body-hugging midi dress played with color and geometry in the most interesting way. Burgundy red formed the base, clean and rich, while a dusty blue panel sliced right down the center, stretching from shoulder to hem in a sharp, almost futuristic cut.

 

It gave “boss woman with an eye for edgy elegance.” The structure of the dress was bold but balanced, and her sharp bob hairstyle added even more power to the look. She kept accessories simple, just a gold bracelet and her nails done to perfection. The whole fit was modern, fashion-forward, and a masterclass in how to make a statement without shouting.

Veekee James did what needed to be done at the wedding ceremony of Nashaira Belisa. Her gown? A rich, regal mix of deep purple and emerald green that screamed red carpet royalty. The bottom half sparkled with purple sequins, like a galaxy of stars sewn into fabric—while the top half cinched her waist in a corset-style emerald green bodice that brought all the drama and all the elegance.

 

She didn’t stop there. A matching emerald chiffon flowed from the waist like a queen’s cape, and the purple headwrap? Perfectly sculpted, echoing the sparkle of her dress. Her metallic purple purse tied everything together, and with makeup that highlighted her natural glow, the whole look was pure opulence. If there was an award for coordination, she’d win it hands down.

Tolu Bally served futuristic glam with a soft touch of sensuality. She wore a lime-green floor-length gown that fit like it was made by the fashion gods themselves. It had a snatched bodice with a plunging neckline and a cheeky keyhole detail that kept things spicy. But the real moment? Forest-green lace accents around the neckline and waist that added just the right amount of contrast and flair.

 

Then came the drama, long lace gloves climbing all the way to her shoulders. It was giving Old Hollywood meets Afro-glam. A delicate silver necklace was her only accessory, letting the dress do all the talking. She had worn this design from her brand 2207bytbally to celebrate with Damilola Adegbite (Adedamee) on her birthday and trust us, it had a lot to say. Tolu didn’t just wear a dress; she made a statement.

For the 17th Headies in April 2025, Chioma wore a deep brown velvet gown that screamed rich-aunty glam. But what really captured our attention were the shoulders. Giant 3D floral appliqués bloomed on both shoulders like wearable art. The velvet was plush, the neckline dipped just right, and the entire look gave drama without doing too much. She looked like she stepped off the red carpet and right into the pages of a style history book.

Now this one was classy with a capital C. Chioma attended Dr. Pascal Gabriel Dozie’s memorial, dressed in a navy blue lace gown, and proved modesty can be just as luxurious. The top had an elegant peplum that cinched her waist beautifully, and the sequin details caught the light with every step. The skirt was tailored to flatter without clinging, and the overall look was simple, clean, and powerful. Sometimes, less really is more, and she knew exactly how to make it work.

Chioma wore this to Priscilla Ojo’s white wedding, but truthfully, she could’ve been the main character. The champagne-colored gown hugged her like a glove, adorned head-to-toe in crystals and pearls that caught the light with every turn. It had a corset-style bodice, semi-sheer panels that gave a little peek of skin, and a long train that floated behind her. But the headpiece stole the show, a metallic, sculpted piece that swirled like wearable art. It wasn’t just fashion, it was an experience.

 

Olive Green with a Mermaid Twist

This olive green mermaid gown? Pure elegance. The dress was fully sequined and strapless, with a fitted bodice adorned with colorful floral appliqués for a playful pop of color. The skirt flared just below the knees, classic mermaid style, but then came the twist, huge flowing satin sleeves that draped dramatically from her arms. It was giving drama, it was giving glam, and it was stunning. Chioma wore it for Obi Cubana’s 50th birthday in April 2025, and she ate, and left no crumbs.

 

Velvet Garden Fantasy

At a family wedding in the U.S., celebrating Enyi and Brittany, Chioma wore a gown that felt plucked from a fairytale—elegant, dreamy, and impossibly chic. The olive green velvet that hugged her figure in all the right places, with a one-shoulder neckline that felt soft and bold at the same time. But the true magic was in the details, sculpted vines and magnolia blossoms trailed down the skirt, turning her into a walking garden goddess. Paired with a long flowing overskirt and perfectly styled waves, and she was simply unforgettable.

 

Chioma Ikokwu doesn’t just dress well, she dresses intentionally. Every look has a story, a mood, and a little bit of magic. Whether she’s in full glam or keeping it simple, one thing is clear: when she steps out, fashion takes notes.
