Mercy Eke Rings in Christmas in a Stunning Red Dress
It’s that time of the year when red becomes dominant colour, but what stands out is the way many celebrities wear it. Mercy Eke channels the festive theme in a stunning red dress as she attends the movie premiere of “The Night Market” hosted by Papaya_ex.
In her Instagram post, she captioned it: “If the dress doesn’t say main character, I don’t know what does.”

She’s wearing a custom-designed sculptural gown by Amy Aghomi. It is made of a fiery red fabric and appears to be heavily embellished with crystal “stone” beads. The bodice is sleek, strapless, well-fitted, and cinched at the waist. The gown is flowing into layered swirls, creating a trumpet silhouette.
What makes this outfit exceptional is the distinctive, large, structured, hood-like frame covering her shoulders and face. It creates an artistic effect while maintaining elegance. She finished this look with matching red pointed-toe heels. She kept a simple yet statement accessory. Her neckpiece and chunky bangles made the dress stand out.

The outfit works so well because it aligns with the season creating, a direct nod to the holiday theme. Also, the confidence with which she carries the look gives the outfit presence. A dress can look beautiful on a mannequin but it truly has impact when the wearer feels comfortable and joyful and that is the kind of energy Mercy exudes in this dress.

Liquorose Experiments with Holiday Style in a Fresh Way
Liquorose shared a new carousel on her verified Instagram, captioned “VIRTUOSO,” quickly drawing thousands of likes and comments. The posts highlight her inventive approach to holiday fashion, combining classic pieces with bold, contemporary details.

She wears a white long-sleeve shirt, held together only by thick cord lacing from collarbone to just below the navel, leaving her midriff exposed. A layered fabric rosette on the left chest adds three-dimensional interest, while narrow silver metallic panels run vertically from shoulders to hem. The sleeves puff from shoulder to cuff, creating volume, which contrasts with the fitted torso.

Her high-waisted dark indigo denim trousers make a striking statement. Loose at the hips, they flare dramatically down the thighs and reach the floor, lightly gathering at the hem. Side cargo pockets and visible top-stitching introduce subtle texture, emphasizing the trousers’ wide proportions and balancing the outfit.
Accessories are minimal, focusing attention on the clothing. She wears oversized silver hoop earrings, a short black pixie haircut with styled baby hairs, matte red lipstick, and soft pink nails. She wears no bag, belt, necklace, bracelet, or watch, allowing the outfit’s structure and contrasts to speak for themselves.

The look is defined by juxtaposition: structured white fabric and metallic accents set against raw indigo denim; tight lacing offset by flowing trousers. The crisp white-and-blue combination creates a refined, visually engaging ensemble that reinterprets holiday style in a bold yet approachable way, showing that experimenting with proportions and textures can be both striking and sophisticated.
