When filmmaker Funke Akindele convened The Creative Blueprint 2.0 masterclass in March 2026, the room was filled with emerging female creatives seeking industry guidance. Toke Makinwa took to her Instagram and shared her outfit for the day on March 20, 2026, in a bespoke mid-grey suit by Julyet Peters. She served as the event’s moderator, who provided the first lesson of the day.

She wore an avant-garde blazer featuring heavily padded shoulders and dramatic oversized balloon style sleeves that taper at the wrist, and deep V-neckline that created a smooth elongated figure. She paired the suit with wide-leg trousers that match the volume of the top. They were high-waisted with deep pleats at the waist giving a modern touch to the tailoring. The grey fabric was cool and structured, and held their shape on her frame.

Her accessories defined the look. Gold statement pieces which included, large gold wing shaped earrings, multiple necklaces, layered dainty gold chains including one with small charms and a longer tiered pearl-and-gold lariet and Celine Triomphe oval sunglasses in rich chocolate brown.

Her hair was styled in long, neat box braids that fell past her shoulders. Toké’s makeup was carefully done by Wunmique, featuring sharp brows, warm neutral-toned smoky eyeshadow and a bold red lip with a velvet matte finish.

For shoes, she went with white pointed-toe heels that sat at the hem, just barely visible, which complemented the tailored shape

For an event focused on inspiring young female creatives, she arrived with confidence, showing the purpose of the gathering.

Tems and Kim Kardashian posed together at the celebration for SKIMS‘ new flagship store on Regent Street in London on September 18, 2026.

Tems wore a black strapless dress with a thin beaded trim across the top and a skirt that fell straight down to her ankles. She wore her hair in a half-up curly style, added drop earrings and a bracelet, and wore a dark plum lip colour.

While on the other hand, Kim wore a chocolate brown leather dress with a corset-style top and lace-up detail running down one side of the skirt. Grommets lined the opening diagonally, and the dress was fitted at the waist. Tems’ dress stayed flat through the fabric, while Kim’s had more structure built into the top half, with the leather giving it a harder texture than the soft material Tems wore.

Here, the two dresses appeared together without clashing. Both women kept their outfits dark and fitted, with no bright colour or print in either look.

The photos were taken at the opening of SKIMS’ first flagship store outside the United States, a two-floor space designed by Rafael de Cárdenas that included a large sculpture by artist Vanessa Beecroft near the entrance. Kim co-founded SKIMS with Jens Grede in 2019, and the London store opened during London Fashion Week on a ten-year lease with the Crown Estate. Guests were served cocktails and food, with a DJ set from model Kim Turnbull before a private dinner later in the night.

Tems was among the guests at the event, along with other names from music and fashion, including Central Cee, Troye Sivan, Kim Petras, Ellie Bamber, and designer Kim Jones. SKIMS has said it plans to open more than 100 stores worldwide by 2027.

Ini Edo traveled to Abuja to celebrate her big brother Captain Ekong’s 60th birthday, and she showed up dressed for the occasion. She captioned the post “Captain Ekong @60,” adding that since she was celebrating a fashionista, she “had to bring a little extra spice.”

Her dress, designed by Becca Needles N Stitches and styled by Henry Sklue, was made from deep red fabric covered from top to bottom in a diamond-patterned crystal lattice. It featured a floor-length mermaid cut, fitted through the body with an asymmetric one-shoulder tie, then flared into a long train that pooled at her feet.

Her hair was styled in a smooth, bone-straight, middle-parted look keeping the focus on her face and the neckline of the dress. For Jewellry, she went with rings and a bracelet, with a matching Lujah purse rounding off the outfit. Photography was by Benny Shot It.

Some time back, for a shoot promoting her film, she wore a black high-slit dress with curly hair and sunglasses beside a vintage blue Camaro, captioned “Something to watch this weekend.”

Ayra Starr just landed her first movie role in Children of Blood and Bone, and she marked the moment at New York Fashion Week in a sheer royal-purple LaQuan Smith maxi dress for the film’s event, captioning the photos “Feeling purple in LaQuan Smith x Children of Blood and Bone.”

The dress had a sheer bodice built into a high-neck silhouette, with the strap draped asymmetrically over one shoulder. The gown ran into a thigh-high slit running down one leg, with the sheer fabric continuing to the floor. She kept accessories minimal, just silver drop earrings and a small purple bag.

Her hair was worn down in soft, straight strands. Her makeup featured magenta and purple tones, finished with a glossy ombre lip, and she completed the look with strappy heels.
