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:

For her footwear, she chose white heels with black toes. The contrast brought the outfit into a sharp focus while maintaining the relaxed mood.

She styled her hair in a straight style that framed her face. The simplicity in the hairstyle worked because it flowed with the outfit’s relaxed aesthetic.

She completed the look with a touch of understated makeup that was minimal but defined. What is notable how the colours reinforce each other.

The matching blues unify the look, the striped detail adds texture, and the white heels highlight the stripes on the shorts.

Toke Makinwa Shows a New Side of Lisa Folawiyo’s Signature Prints

Published

on

Toke has been showing consistent style choices. In one of her recent posts, she wore a Lisa Folawiyo dress that shows a designer exploring bold colour combinations.

Toke Makinwa: Instagram

The print consists of green, blue, and yellow, in a colour mix that differs from her usual work. The gown showcases a fitted cape style with a slight opening at the side of bust. It has volume at the edge, while the brief length ensures it remains easy to wear.

Lisa Folawiyo is known for intricate designs and embellishments, but this style emphasizes colour structure. It’s clean, and more pared-back than what she is recognized for.

Toke Makinwa: Instagram

Toke completed the look with green platform that mirror the shades in the print. It added height elevation and vibrancy, maintaining the overall effect without overwhelming the dress.

A neutral shoe would have dulled the effect and diminished the dress’s impact. Her short haircut and bold makeup kept the focus steady, letting the dress be the main attraction.

The dress worked well because every element of it felt intentional. Toke Makinwa carried the look with ease.

The confidence in her look unifies the entire appearance. When a strong piece meets someone who knows how to wear it, the outfit speaks for itself.

She wore a royal blue, long-sleeved mini dress, featuring an elaborate, multi-coloured artistic design in the front torso area. The dress was cinched in the waist to give more definition to her hourglass shape. She pairs this look with a gold strappy high-heeled sandals and a small orange handbag, which added a contrasting pop of colour. And of course, a well laid hair and a neatly done face glam.

The outfit works perfectly for such an event which celebrated two decades of excellence and achievement in the fashion industry. Not a small feat. Her outfit is chic without being stuffy, and glamourous without being overly traditional and dramatic even though you might have expected her to be considering the kind of event it is. Her outfit strikes a perfect balance between evening-wear elegance and party-ready fun, which allows her to move freely and socialize.
