The Bridgerton Season 4 premiere in South Africa was not just another stop on a global press tour. The location and the guest list mattered and the way African creatives showed up mattered the most. With Uzor Arukwe, Idia Aisien, Shine Rosman, Efe Irele, and other familiar faces in attendance, suffice it to say, Nigeria was well represented.

Shine Rosman brought her own regency-era inspired interpretation of the event in a gown designed by Lasosa. The gown is a combination of fuschia and deep burgundy. It has a detailed waist silhouette with a form fitting strapless fuschia bodice. A voluminous draped burgundy overskirt with ruffled red trim at the front. She pairs this look with a medium sized fuschia hand fan and matching gloves. Her hair style came with a bit of drama. Minimal accessories and a soft face glam.

Uzor Arukwe arrived looking assured. His outfit did not fight for attention. He wore a tailored deep blue tailcoat featuring intricate black and gold embroidery on the cuffs and collar and matching pants. A waistcoat with gold and white pattern in front. The shirt was a white, high-collared dress shirt with cravat at the neck. He was accessorised with black glasses, formal shoes, a gold chain detail on his jacket, and a black walking cane. The outfit sat well on his frame and kept proportions intact.

Idia Aisien approached the night looking like a Bridgerton. She wore a regal, period-style ball gown. The colour of the dress was a deep emerald green, likely velvet fabric which provides a rich texture. This is complemented by gold with a mix of green patterns used for the center panel of the dress. The bodice is a structured gold corset design. The sleeves are short and puffed that extended into opera-length green gloves with gold designs at the wrists. She accessorised with a black fascinator.

Efe Irele interpreted the Afro-couture masquerade theme of the event in her mint-green ball gown with yellow and green floral appliques. It was off-shoulder, sweetheart neckline. The dress has long flowing sleeves that drape elegantly to the ground. Her hair updo is the center of attention. She captioned the image “The sunset in Africa” and it was well reflected in her makeup. Sunset-toned eyeshadow.

Together, the guests turned the evening into a celebration of African creativity, where period inspiration met contemporary design.

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 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.

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.

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.
