Lilian’s birthday message went beyond her outfit. She mentioned that she stayed in her path and believed in God even when it didn’t make any sense. In her words, “I’m glad you never gave up, even when it would’ve been easier to walk away,” this tells us how she has worked hard to be who she is today. The star described the moment as, “getting her flowers,” because she has watered every seed with faith, tears, and persistence.

What a beautiful way to start a new chapter. Toke Makinwa didn’t leave her birthday celebration out of view. She wore a red gown by Emaginebybukola with a high-neck sleeveless bodice. The dress fit flawlessly before it flared into a train, with tulle panels, and edges at her hips.

What made this moment special was not only the clothes, but how she redefined the narrative that mothers should not forget their identity after childbirth. You can be a mother and still be a fashion icon.

When Banke Kuku unveiled her Spring/Summer 2026 Savannah collection in Lagos, one of the most noticed guests was Chioma Ikokwu. Known for her careful sense of style, she arrived in a vivid pink and green Banke Kuku dress that immediately drew attention.

The figure-hugging design followed the growing trend of long, body-conscious dresses with defined waists and good ruching. Its print moved from bright pink at the top to deeper green tones and floral patterns at the hem.

Chioma completed her outfit with a matching drawstring bag by the same designer. The textured fabric and oversized tassels added interest. Her straight hair, clean makeup, and minimal jewellery allowed the focus to stay on the structure and colour of the piece.

Her choice of look felt intentional, modern, and composed, and in tune with the direction of Nigerian fashion. Chioma’s personal style often shows how colour and print can be used with control rather than excess, and this outing showed that balance perfectly.

Banke Kuku’s Savannah collection explored bold range of colours and nature-inspired prints through up-to-date cuts that combine artistry and comfort. Chioma’s appearance fit naturally into that idea, representing the strength of local design and its growing influence across Africa’s fashion capitals.
