What Defines Uche Montana’s Style?
Red Carpet Royalty
Uche doesn’t just walk the red carpet, she commands it. At the 10th Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards (AMVCA), she stole the show in a custom Veekee James gown: a nude illusion mermaid dress with intricate beading, a sculpted corset, and feathered details that exudes luxury.

Color as a Power Move
If there’s one thing Uche doesn’t fear, it’s color. At The Betrayed movie premiere, she made a fiery entrance in a high-neck pepper red gown with a nude corset twist, courtesy of Prudential Atelier. In another standout look, she embraced sunshine yellow from SAMA WOMAN, pairing a halter-neck cutout top with palazzo pants.
Takeaway: Bright hues can be both elegant and daring. Don’t be afraid to wear red, orange, yellow, or emerald green, especially in well-tailored silhouettes.

Cultural Sophistication
Uche’s love for Nigerian heritage comes through in her occasional embrace of Ankara and lace fabrics, reimagined in chic, contemporary cuts. Whether it’s a structured blouse or a floor-length skirt, she knows how to fuse tradition with modern style.
Takeaway: Add cultural depth to your wardrobe. Explore ways to modernize traditional fabrics, and don’t forget the finishing touches, think gele, bold earrings, or handcrafted clutches.

Balance is Key
If the outfit is dramatic, keep accessories minimal. If you’re going for a simple silhouette, don’t be afraid to bring in bold earrings, a luxe bag, or a sharp heel.

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.
