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.

Dede Ashiogwu Shows Off Abs in Bra Top and Crochet Skirt
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.
