Tems walked the red carpet at the 2026 BET Awards on Sunday, June 28, at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. She had three nominations that night, including Best Female R&B/Pop Artist and a BET Her nod for her song “First,” but her outfit was already making rounds on the Internet before the night even properly began.

She arrived at the event in a brown bodycon gown with a plunging halter neckline that showed her hourglass shape. The dress transitions at her hips into a heavy, asymmetrical wrap of matching chocolate ostrich feathers that falls into a big textured floor-length train, completely concealing her footwear.

Her glam, executed by makeup artist Kayla Perez was in warm earthy tones with a deep brown lined glossy lip that complemented the gown. Her hair, styled by Viphair Ashanti was parted down the center into long, soft, waves that fall past her shoulders. Tems kept her accessories minimal choosing a delicate diamond choker necklace paired with a matching diamond bracelet and a few rings.

She was seen in three outfits at the event. For her performance of “What You Need,” she wore an ivory cream halter gown, backed by a full band and six backup singers. Later, she joined Tierra Whack on stage in a black vest and pinstripe trousers for a tribute to Lauryn Hill, who received the night’s first Living Legend Icon Award.

In the end, Tems did not win any of her three categories. But between the red carpet and the stage, her outfit was worth every hype.

Going from the Lagos music scene to center stage in Los Angeles didn’t happen by accident. Every detail, right down to the feathers on her dress, was a calculated move.

Sharon Ooja attended a friend’s military wedding in Abuja on August 23, 2026, wearing a custom-made light blue tweed skirt suit from Sevon Dejana, styled by Dahmola. The tailored peplum blazer had high shoulders, a standing collar, and a deep V-neckline with gold statement buttons, matched with a fitted skirt. The suit was covered in glittering leaf-like embroidery, with a feathered waist trim in purple and white, and a fabric train at the back. Her hair was a smooth, vintage-inspired updo, and her makeup was done by Glam by Uwa. She wore a layered gold necklace, door-knocker earrings, a chain bracelet, and nude ballet-style pumps.

Out on a brunch outing in Paris, Delonyii wore an oversized white blazer over her shoulders, over a black scoop-neck cropped tank and fitted black shorts trimmed in white lace. Her hair fell in dark waves under a black pillbox hat. Her makeup was done in neutral tones with products from Baretobeautycosmetics. She finished the look with dark oval sunglasses, a black leather bucket bag, a silver watch, thin bracelets, and black patent stilettos.

Leaning into black dandyism, Bimbo chose matching mocha-tan two-piece set: a blazer with broad shoulders that buttoned low at the waist, worn with wide-leg trousers cut high. Her hair was done in a long bone-straight wig by Hair by Tosin, and her makeup by Glam by Morgan combined earthy tones with a berry-red lip. Her accessories included a scarlet New York Yankees cap, a red Dolce & Gabbana trapezoidal bag, gold hoop earrings, a bracelet, and a few rings, finished with black leather loafers.

Her look was a cropped bralette top with a sweetheart neckline in a pink, white, and purple majolica-style print, matched with a flared mini skirt finished with a hot pink hem border. Her hair was styled in soft black waves with a side part. Her makeup stayed simple, finished with a glossy nude lip. She accessorized with white oval sunglasses, a cherry-red Hermes Kelly bag, a pendant necklace, and open-toe heeled sandals.

In a post promoting her new project “Second Chances,” Uche Montana went with a baby pink gown by House of Moesha, with a thigh-high slit and a sheer cutout panel at the waist, matched with a feathered wrap draped over one shoulder. Her hair, courtesy of Touch of I.Bee, was styled in loose, long dark waves. Genovera Beauty handled her makeup in warm tones and a nude lip. She rounded off the look with delicate drop earrings, a small clutch, and strappy heeled sandals.

On 21 August, in what appears to be an outing, Yvonne Godswill wore a black gown by Yagi Wrld, with a cutout waist and one shoulder draped in fabric that swept down the opposite arm. Her hair was styled into a full, curly auburn updo, and her makeup was done in neutral shades with a nude lip. She kept her jewellery down to a single hoop earring.

Dede Ashiogwu recently shared new photos on her Instagram. The former Bigbrother Naija housemate was seen on a rooftop surrounded by palm trees and she captioned the post “Popped by to say hello.”

She was photographed in a cropped, white sleeveless rib-knit tank top with a scoop neckline and a hem cut short above the waist, leaving her midsection bare. She paired it with a low-rise, multicoloured crochet midi skirt featuring horizontal stripes in shades of orange, pink, yellow, red, black, and mint green, finished with a scalloped hemline and a knit drawstring at the hip.

Her hair was worn in a long, straight dark brown wig styled in a half-up, half-down look, smoothly pulled back away from the face. Her makeup was done in warm earthy tones and a glossy nude lip with dark liner. For accessories, she carried a small, structured bright pink top-handle mini bag and wore a gold chain necklace, small flower-shaped stud earrings, and a slim bracelet. For shoes, Dede chose clear wedge sandals with a transparent front strap and heel.

Her tank top stopped short enough to show off a flat, toned stomach, while the skirt sat low on her hips.

This isn’t her first time pairing a fitted top with a skirt either. Earlier this August, she wore a baby pink off-shoulder top with a matching pleated mini skirt during a workout, styled with a blonde bob wig and lace-up pink heels. While the two outfits have different silhouettes and styling, both looks show Dede wearing skirts with fitted tops.
