In Nigeria’s ever-evolving fashion scene, Uche Montana the Nollywood princess stands out not just as a gifted actress, but as a true style muse. With each red carpet appearance or Instagram post, she makes a statement, bold, confident, and unapologetically chic. In 2025, her fashion presence remains a masterclass in embracing glamour with intention.
Whether she’s turning heads at the AMVCAs or owning the premiere night spotlight, Uche’s style speaks volumes. So how do you recreate her iconic aesthetic? Here’s a deep dive into her signature fashion formula and how you can make it your own.
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. This look wasn’t just beautiful, it was architectural, ethereal, and unforgettable.
Takeaway: Look for pieces that combine structure and softness, think corsetry, hand embellishments, and flowing silhouettes. This is red carpet energy at its finest.

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.

Why Nengi Hampson’s Mixed-Monochrome Look Is Our New Style Obsession
Nengi Hampson stepped out for an outing on May 7, 2026, and gave us a quick reminder why she stays on our radar. The reality star and CEO of Shoesbyflora posted a series of photos on Instagram with the caption, “May this month be kind to us,” and while we are absolutely wishing the same, we could not stop staring at what she had on.

Photo: Instagram
She wore a black, sheer long-sleeve bodysuit with a turtleneck and textured wavy line patterns. She paired it with a high-waisted, pleated flared mini skirt in a monochrome black-and-white houndstooth pattern.
Her accessories included a high-end metallic silver quilted mini top-handle bag from Dior and stud earrings. Nengi’s hair was worn in a chic, slicked-back wet-look with a side part tucked neatly behind her ears.

Photo: Instagram
Her full-glam look featured sharply defined brows, smoky eye shadow with winged eyeliner, and a perfectly lined ombre lip paired with a high-shine nude lip gloss.
Her shoes were black strappy high-heel sandals with an toe and a distinct ankle strap adorned with shimmering rhinestones.

Photo: Instagram
If you scroll back to her March 19 post where she captioned it “90s fine,” Nengi was in a floor-length bronze satin halter dress with a thigh-high split, all smooth fabric and low-key luxury. That look did its work through a long hem and shiny fabric. This one pulls in the opposite direction, trading the floor-grazing hem for a full, structured pleated mini and swapping liquid fabric for graphic tweed texture.

Akin Faminu’s Funky Colour Combination Is Hard to Ignore
Akin Faminu knows exactly who he is when it comes to style, and that clarity shows in everything he wears. His latest shoot, captioned “Matcha” and photographed by Kimilokan, is proof of that.
He wore an oversized, single-breasted blazer from Cruxin a bright chartreuse with a distinct, heavy textured weave, structured shoulders and wide lapels. He paired it with oversized, wide-leg trousers in an olive-to-forest green gradient. The pants featured ripped detailing near the thighs and a contrasting pattern around the hem.

His accessories included a leather duffle bag in glossy, bright Kelly green featuring dual handles and front utility pockets, also from Crux.xyz. A metallic gold brooch shaped like a hand was pinned to the right lapel of the blazer. He added round dark-tinted sunglasses with a thin frame, a thin choker-style necklace, and multiple rings. He completed the look with rounded-toe platform shoes that mirror the bright lime yellow of the blazer, peeking out from beneath the wide trouser hems.

Photo: Kimilokan
It has been a busy year for Faminu personally too. He married Kiky Festus in April this year. He was also at Ojude Oba 2026 last week, wearing a layered Aso-Oke look in rich wine, gold and blue tones that many people could not stop sharing. A full year by any measure, and his style has kept up with every moment of it
His tailored shoot for Deji and Kola shows the other side of his personal style entirely. Burgundy and navy blazer, cream trousers, dark loafers from Adamskahz, and a tan leather briefcase from Deji and Kola. Quiet, sharp, and just as considered.

Dabota Lawson’s Italian Getaway Is a Vintage Fashion Dream Come to Life
Dabota Lawson celebrated her birthday on June 2nd in Positano, Italy, with a series of birthday photographs which she captioned “Thank you so much for all your prayers and well wishes. I wish you all of God’s choicest blessings. Cheers to an iconic year.”
Positano is one of the most photographed places in the world, with its pastel buildings climbing up the cliffs and the Mediterranean stretching out below.

Lawson was photographed wearing a pristine white bodycon dress with a ruched torso, soft hip folds and an asymmetric draped off-the-shoulder neckline.
For accessories, Dabota wore 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.

Photo: Instagram
Her makeup consisted of defined brows, warm earthy tones and a nude lip. Lawson wrapped up her look with silver open-toe stiletto heeled sandals with a criss-cross strap design.

Back in May, Dabota was seen in a white blazer suit with crystal detailing on the shoulders and cuffs for the launch of her Dabota Cosmetics store. That look was tailored and formal. This one is looser, relaxed and vacation-ready.
