Tiwa Savage is not slowing down. The Queen of Afrobeats recently hit 800 million streams on Spotify and launched her own music foundation to support and mentor the next generation of African artists. That extends to her music is the same one she brings to her fashion choices. Her style has leaned into bolder styling over the years, and her latest look which she shared on Instagram on April 9, 2026, with the caption “She doesn’t step out, but when she does it’s a moment”.

Tiwa wore an avant-garde black floor-length gown that had a high neckline and long sleeves, creating a covered upper half that contrasts sharply to the lower half. Over the dress she layered it with a bolero jacket with hundreds of layers of 3D florals. In addition the dress had a thigh-high slit that gave it a modern touch.

For accessories, Tiwa chose gold statement pieces including two wide gold cuffs on her wrists, rings on her fingers, and gold drop earrings. She styled the look with a micro Fendi Baguette bag in gold. Her shoes were black pointed-toe heels with gold tips. Tiwa’s hair was styled in her signature pixie curls and her makeup included warm tones and a nude lip.

This is not her first major appearance this year. Back in March, she walked the MOBO Awards red carpet in a structured off-the-shoulder gown covered in 3D silver metallic tiles. This one is the complete opposite, all black, clean lines, a thigh-high slit, and gold accessories were precisely selected. Both look had one thing in common, they were both tightly constructed.

Each Sunday this BBNaija season 11, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu comes out in something new. No repeats so far.

He has moved between sharp Western suits and full traditional wear all season. One week its a tailored double-breasted jacket with a two-tone gradient finish, the next its a flowing agbada with embroidery running down the sleeves.

The details are worth highlighting too. There’s a graphic maize motif stitched into a sky-blue suit, silver lattice sequin work on a black wrapper, and geometric patterns worked into denim fabric on an agbada. Several Nigerian designers have dressed him this season, including Mai Atafo, Deji & Kola, Ugo and Lisa Folawiyo.

He has also added extras to a few of the looks: a crystal-handled horsetail whip, layers of coral neck beads, sunglasses and a Louis Vuitton duffel bag.

He opened the season on July 26, 2026, in a charcoal-to-off-white ombré double-breasted suit by Mai Atafo. The colour fading from dark at the shoulders to almost white by the ankle. He finished with a large black lapel bow and patent shoes

On August 9, 2026, he appeared on BBNaija in another look by Mai Atafo, this time in a black-and-white outfit built from a cropped boxy jacket, wide-legged trousers, and a tie trimmed with pearls, and accessorized with a Louis Vuitton Keepall bag.

Most recently, on September 6, 2026, he hosted the eviction show in a forest-green two-piece suit by Deji & Kola, worn under a windowpane trench coat lined in a floral print. He paired it with brown shades and matching leather shoes.

Season 11 still has weeks to go, and if Ebuka’s run so far is anything to go by, there are plenty more looks to come.

Her hair, styled by Adefunke, was pulled back into a low bun and wrapped in a matching leopard print headscarf. Sharon’s makeup was done by Annabel’s Glam in warm tones, with nude, glossy lips. She completed the look with black strappy heels laced up to her calf.

She was there to support her best friend, Bisola Aiyeola, who stars in “19,” a crime drama written and directed by Tola Odunsi and distributed by Nile Entertainment.

Sharon also used the post to remind her followers that “Ordinary People,” the Netflix series she stars in alongside Ramsey Nouah, Adunni Ade, Chidi Mokeme, and Michelle Dede, is still streaming after its September 4 premiere.

She brought the same attention to detail to the “Ordinary People” premiere, where she wore a cream and white striped corset dress with a peplum waist and a bow tied above the hip.
