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.

Destiny Etiko’s latest appearance in a denim jumpsuit wasn’t something we were expecting. On January 16 she stepped out in a denim jumpsuit, a style that has lost its trend for a while. In a time where celebrity fashion leans toward bodycon dresses and coordinated sets, her choice for a denim jumpsuit feels well-thought out.

The light-wash one-piece depended on its cut. It was form-fitted at the waist, loose through the legs, and gathered at the ankles, giving the outfit a delicate shape. There was nothing extravagant about the design.
