Toke Makinwa was photographed at a night out wearing a chocolate brown oversized graphic tee from Kai Collective, layered over a rust-orange macramé net skirt, and captioned it “Category is African Baddie.” That caption was not a boast. It was a more of a description.

She wore a chocolate brown, oversized crewneck t-shirt that came with a large abstract graphic print on the front with curving blocks of pink, yellow, black, and white. The sleeves were casually rolled up to the mid-bicep. She paired it over a long, statement-making rust-orange macramé net skirt. The bottom featured an open fishnet weave that cascaded into a dense, heavy long fringe which swayed around her legs.

Her hair was styled in an ultra-straight center-parted blowout in warm brown shade. She had her makeup in warm earthy tones. For accessories, she carried a miniature beige woven top-handle bag featuring gold hardware accents from her brand Toke Makinwa Luxury and wore retro-inspired oversized round tortoiseshell sunglasses with dark gradient lenses. Jewellery-wise, she went with oversized gold filigree drop earrings in an elongated teardrop shape, paired with metallic cuff bracelets. Her shoes were minimalist, high-gloss blush pink patent leather open-toe mules with a simple platform and architectural heel.

Since returning to public life following the birth of her daughter Yakira Precious, Toke has been showing up at events and on social media with the same sharpness she has always carried. Getting dressed for Toke, has always looked like a decision, and this night out was no different.

Just weeks before this, in early May, she had worn a floor-length olive green metallic gown with an off-shoulder neckline, a thigh-high split, a fitted silhouette, and diamond jewellery from Akano Diamonds. Where that look was structured and body-hugging from top to hem, this one opened with a roomy graphic tee and moved into a loose, fringed skirt.

American actress Meagan Good attended the Africa Creative Exchange Dinner in Lagos on November 9, 2026, with her husband, actor Jonathan Majors. For the occasion, she wore a white mini dress by Nigerian label Weiz Dhurm Franklyn, from the brand’s Spring/Summer 2027 collection.

The dress had a fitted bodice covered in rows of bronze, black and green beadwork. White straps ran over the shoulders. A long panel of white fabric fell from the side. Good paired the dress with a black clutch and black strappy heels.

Her hair was styled in voluminous curls with a side part, and her makeup was done in warm tones and a nude lip.

Her outfit draws inspiration from Igbo-Ukwu bronze art, which informed the label’s Spring/Summer 2027 collection. This influence can be seen in the bronze-toned beadwork and decorative details on the dress.

Other guests at the dinner included American actress Amandla Stenberg, basketball analyst Chiney Ogwumike, and actress Beverly Naya alongside filmmakers, actors, investors and other creatives from Africa and the African communities overseas.

Organised by Amplify Africa as part of its inaugural Diaspora Week Lagos, the dinner was held at Pitstop Village in Ikoyi.

Genevieve Nnaji does not turn up at events often, so when she does, people notice. It has been months since her last public appearance, and just when it seemed we would have to wait longer, she resurfaced in black. Then again, we should not be surprised; when she decides to show up, she does it in style.

The actress attended Creative Africa Nexus, wearing a dress from Orire’s Spring/Summer 2027 collection. The Lagos-based label showed the collection at Lagos Fashion Week on November 1, 2026.

The black dress was floor-length, sleeveless and fitted at the top, with a deep V neckline. Gathered folds ran down the skirt from the waist, and long panels of fabric hung from both shoulders almost to the hem.

She paired the look with gold hoop earrings, a matching bracelet and a small black round clutch with a ruffled edge. Her hair was loose in soft waves with a side parting, and her makeup was done in warm tones with a nude lip.

Creative Africa Nexus Weekend, also known as CANEX WKND, is organised by Afreximbank, the African Export-Import Bank, and runs from November 5 to 8 at the Wole Soyinka Centre for Cultural and Creative Arts in Lagos. This is the first time Nigeria is hosting the event.

The gathering is billed as Africa’s largest for creative and cultural industries. People from film, music, fashion, sport, publishing and business are in Lagos, along with investors and policymakers, to discuss trade and financing for the sector.

This year’s theme is “One People, United in Culture, Creating for the World: From FESTAC ’77 to CANEX’27.” A major concert for artists from across Africa and the diaspora takes place on November 7, and the final day, November 8, is for cultural excursions and food activities.

In May, she was at the Cannes Film Festival, where the Red Sea Film Foundation honoured her at its Women in Cinema gala. There, she wore a brown outfit that slipped off one shoulder, with a ruched sleeve and a wide waistband. Her hair was worn long and straight, parted in the middle.

Uzor Arukwe, her co-star, was dressed by Jax Grehman in a white tuxedo jacket with a swirl pattern and a black bow tie. He paired it with a white shirt and black trousers.

Loving Itohan comes from NIP Studios. The film is a romantic drama about second chances. Nancy plays the lead, Itohan, a woman hit by loss and by secrets she did not expect. Alongside Uzor Arukwe, the cast includes Martha Ehinome Orhiere, Dorathy Bachor, Chioma Nwosu, Florence Sunday, Grace Dein Coker and Obehi Aburime.

Emmanuel Izuoba produced the film, while Nancy served as its executive producer. When she shared the trailer, she called the film “our baby” and said it was finally here. The trailer shows a drama built on secrets and hard choices.
