Nigerian Celebrities Who Take Fashion Risks.
One undebatable fact is that the Nigerian fashion scene is very daring. In a world where fashion is mostly performative dress ups, some Nigerian celebrities have made decisions to stand out. They do not just stand out in their crafts and beauty, they also set paces in the ways they choose to style themselves.
These Nigerian celebrities have understood that fashion is not just all about wearing pieces of clothing and makeup. They understand that it is also an art and rebellion. They have chosen not to define their senses of fashion with the standards that everyone goes by, rather they have made a solo path to tow on while others follow.
Some of these Nigerian celebrities include:
Nancy Isime

TV host and actress, Nancy Isime has carved a niche for herself with a fashion style that blends athleticism with elegance. She’s not your average glam girl; she’s fierce, dynamic, and always evolving.
Nancy takes risks by blending sporty and feminine aesthetics. She’s walked red carpets in tuxedos, dyed her hair blonde when it was still the wrongest thing to do, and consistently pushes the envelope with her hairstyles and bold prints.
Her fashion risks also extend into performance and hosting outfits; dramatic shoulder pads, leather corsets, and jumpsuits that showcase her toned physique. She doesn’t shy away from clothing that screams “power.”
Toke Makinwa

Media personality, influencer, and entrepreneur Toke Makinwa lives and breathes high fashion. She’s not afraid of the dramatic, the extravagant, or the sparkly. Her fashion risks often involve bold colors, racy cuts, and luxurious fabrics that scream confidence.
From plunging necklines to neon faux-fur coats, Toke has walked red carpets and graced social events in fashion pieces that only a few coud pull off. Her Instagram feed is a lookbook of high-risk, high-reward fashion moments.

Tiwa Savage

Tiwa Savage is one of the few Nigerian celebrities who is not only a musical legend but also a fashion icon who constantly reinvents her style.h Whether she’s performing on international stages or attending Lagos fashion week, Tiwa knows how to command attention with her bold and most times, controversial fashion choices.
She is not afraid to use fashion to highlight her femininity, not minding what netizens have to say about her daring fashion choices.
One day she is putting on an oversized jacket with boots then the next day she is rocking a very sultry bikini while having fun at the beach. Her powerful fashion statements often sparks conversations online- both praises and criticism. Tiwa, however, does not care as she remains unapologetic about her fashion choices.
Tems

Tems is one out of Nigerian celebrities whose fashion choices steps out of the ordinary. She does not roll with the regular flashy celebrity fashion, yet she stands out whenever she makes an outing.
She has a thing for comfort and self expression as she favours calm tones, oversized pieces and dramatic outfits that rebels against the hyper feminine expectations placed on Nigerian celebrities.
Shaffy Bello

Shaffy Bello has redefined what it means to be stylish as a woman over 40. She is elegant, regal, and absolutely fearless in her fashion choices. Her presence at any red carpet event immediately raises the bar.
She embraces bold prints, dramatic ruffles, oversized jewelry, and high-fashion pieces. Shaffy wears fashion with the confidence of someone who knows herself and doesn’t need validation.
Her fashion risks are deeply tied to embracing age with style. She proves that older women can be just as daring and fashionable, challenging ageism in the entertainment industry.
You might want to have a rethink when next you have to step out in a fashion piece. You can choose to work with the normal or choose to step out of the ordinary.

Rema Seen at the Franca Fund Gala Wearing a White Tailored Suit
Rema attended the Franca Fund Gala in Doha wearing a white tailored suit, highlighting his appearance.
The gala was hosted at the Museum of Islamic Art, and led by Anna Wintour and Francesco Carozzini, with several figures from fashion, art, and entertainment industry as they honoured the legacy of Franca Sozanni.

Rema: Instagram
For an evening that’s set against a mix of personal interpretations of eveningwear, Rema showed up in a tailored all white suit that doesn’t require any embellishments. The white scarf he tucked into his jacket stood out without added detailing.
His sunglasses added a soft finishing touch, while there was a small silver brooch on his lapel. It introduced a modern edge without tipping into excess extravagance. Instead of settling for monochrome with white shoes, Rema chose reddish-brown dress shoes.

Rema: Instagram
The contrast provided the right balance. The warm leather tones against the white created a rich and grounded effect that softened the starkness of the white. His locs, well styled, framed his face naturally, and he had a drink in hand looking comfortable at ease.
Rema’s low-key good style stood out amid the evening’s over-the-top looks, with deliberate details that made his outfit register naturally.

Nancy Isime Steps Forward in a Runway-Fresh Lanre DaSilva Ajayi Creation
Nancy Isime brings a seasoned ease to this Lanre DaSilva Ajayi gown, worn during the designer’s 20th anniversary celebration. Her caption “Once a Model, Forever a Model” sets the tone for the moment as a natural return to a space she’s always been comfortable in.

Nancy Isime- Instagram
Shot by Kelechi Amadi-Obi, she leans into a dress that does the work on its own. The gown comes in a full, structured form covered in oversized appliqué florals cut in velvet and set over a dotted sheer layer that gives the fabric depth without reducing its force. The saturated mix of red, yellow, and green aligns with LDA’s trademark approach to bold design and intricate handwork.
Her styling remains intentional. The gold drop earrings offer a counterpoint without pulling focus away from the dress, and the straight, neat hair keeps the attention on the dress. It shows the kind of clean beauty direction often used in Vogue’s eveningwear stories where the garment leads.

Nancy Isime- Instagram
Nancy tags Dabota Lawson, Beauty Tukura, and Idia Aisien because they also walked the runway at the anniversary event, creating a shared moment among women with long-term ties to the fashion scene. The caption reads more like a nod to familiar ground than a staged setup.
The final impression is clear and controlled: a unique piece, a capable team, and someone who knows exactly how to wear a dress built for presence.
