Wunmi Mosaku Honours African Heritage with Braided Hair and Bold Jewelry for Glamour UK Cover
Wunmi Mosaku appears on the latest cover of Glamour UK in a photo story that draws on African heritage through hair, jewellery, and clothing. The British-Nigerian actress, known for her roles in Lovecraft Country and the most nominated film in Oscar history, Sinners, is photographed in a series of portraits that highlight braided hairstyles and strong metal jewellery.
Ekua King captures Mosaku against warm studio tones that keep the focus on the clothes and hair. Her braids were styled by Dionne Smith, and shaped into six braided loops, two large loops at the top and two smaller ones at each side of her face, near the temples. The hairstyle draws from long-standing Yoruba braiding traditions, known as Irun Kiko, where hair is often styled in intricate patterns that carry cultural significance.

Creative stylist Georgia Medley presents Mosaku in a selection of textured garments paired with bold jewellery. In one portrait, she wears a wide white attire with long black earrings and a structured headpiece. Another image centres on a stacked metal neck ring known as Dzilla, which is worn close to the collarbone, a type of neck ring inspired by similar styles found in multiple cultural traditions, including the Ndebele and Kayan peoples.

The editorial also moves through darker and brighter tones, where other portraits show Mosaku in a sheer black dress that falls loosely over the body, creating a light layered shape. In another full-length image, she wears a lime green hooded robe with a high slit that reveals one leg as she stands barefoot on an earth-toned set. Thick gold bangles line her forearms while the fabric hangs freely around the body.

Set designer Joshua Stovell keeps the background simple with clay-coloured ground and soft walls, allowing the materials like fabric, braids, and metal to stand out.
Makeup artist Joy Adenuga keeps Mosaku’s skin smooth with a deep lip colour that gives the portraits a strong finish. Nail artist Tinu Bello completes the beauty details with dark burgundy nails that work well with the gold jewellery and warm tones used across the shoot.
The shoot was produced in London by Raw Production under the editorial direction of Kemi-Olivia Alemoru. Behind-the-scenes footage was filmed by Nathaniel Rodriguez and edited by Celia Gomez.
Across the images, braids and metal jewellery act as cultural markers, linking the fashion story to traditions that have long shaped African identity.

Enioluwa’s look leans into that modern executive charm – clean, confident, and slightly relaxed. He is dressed in a clean, well-tailored navy blue three-piece suit, with a crisp white shirt and white shoes. Draped over his shoulders sits a dark overcoat. He complements his look with a black briefcase.
Phina is styled in a fitted pinstriped mini skirt suit in a cool gray tone with a fine black stripe running through it. This look exudes feminine authority. The blazer sits sharply on her, paired with a white shirt and a tie, giving her a bold, fashionable edge. She finishes it all with pair of white pointed heels that adds a clean contrast to the suit. Her was in long, straight with bangs. Her look sets the pace that a woman walking side by side with her person doesn’t have to shrink.

Eni completed his look with a black briefcase, a long beaded necklace boldly sitting across his chest, a bracelet, a ring, and a stud earring. His neat braids blend culture and style, giving him a structured, finished look. The tinted amber sunglasses elevated the style. Phina kept it minimal by letting her diamond ring do the talking.
Eni & Phina’s moment in the streets of Paris is proof that love doesn’t have to be boring but can be subtle and intentional.

Chioma Ikokwu Changes the Mood in Three Looks at ‘The Return of Arinzo’ Premiere
Chioma Ikokwu attended the Premiere for “The Return Of Arinzo” on March 30, 2026. She didn’t just walk the red carpet, she made a strong impression with three distinct outfit changes. Known to her fans as Chioma Goodhair, the entrepreneur moved from traditional regal velvet to a modern, hand-beaded style. From entrepreneur to actor, each look custom-made and rooted in African identity. Here is a breakdown of the three custom looks that stole the show.

For her first look, which was themed “First Lady”, she wore a regal, custom-made deep burgundy velvet floor-length gown designed by Sevon Dejana. The dress featured an off-shoulder mermaid silhouette with structure and detailing at the hips and shoulders. The gown was decorated with gold beaded branch-like patterns dropping down the body. Her hair was styled by Adefunkee in a smooth, bob tucked under a matching burgundy turban from Eminence Mez. Her makeup was done by Tolu Felix, with warm-toned eyeshadow, a sharp winged liner, and a glossy, deep-rose lip. Chioma’s accessories included beaded statement pieces by Beads by Hayolar that covered her neck and décolletage.

Chioma switched things up with her second look, which she called “First Lady Extraordinaire” she blended traditional Cameroonian craft with avant-garde maximalist style. Ikokwu wore a custom-made “Toghu-inspired” velvet cape gown. The centerpiece was a large colourful Toghu embroidery panel on the chest, featuring traditional Cameroonian patterns. The cape was trimmed with rows of white cowrie shells. Her hair was tucked neatly under a matching black velvet turban from Eminence Mez, providing a regal finish. Chioma’s makeup, done by Tolu Felix included sharp eyeliner and a bold lip. For accessories she wore gold and red earrings.

Her third look, which was for the after-party designed by Djec Fashion, she went with something more simpler compared to her first two outfits. She wore a bodycon mermaid gown with a daring halter-neckline. The dress was entirely hand beaded with tiny burnt orange and red crystals that transitioned into emerald green at the hem. Her hair was styled in retro waves, her makeup included warm earthy tones. Chioma accessorized her look with gold bangles. She finished the look with classic strappy heels.
Three looks, three different moods and each look was executed clearly. “The Return of Arinzo” was also her movie debut and it is scheduled for theatrical release in cinemas nationwide on April 3, 2026.

Idia Aisien Gives Floral Energy
Idia Aisien has been in Cape Town since late March. The actress and media personality was among the guests at Universal Pictures’ promotional event for their upcoming romantic comedy “You, Me & Tuscany”, starring Halle Bailey and Regé-Jean Page. Idia showed up to the film event and made her outfit the headline. She shared the photos on Instagram on March 31, 2026, with the caption “Can i get a little commotion for the dress and glam squad”.

Idia arrived at the event in a floral-print gown from Trishocouture. The gown’s bodice had a high neckline and long sleeves in sheer fabric printed with orange, yellow, and green floral patterns. It was artfully draped and fitted at the waist to create a defined shape. The lower half of the gown flowed into a floor-sweeping maxi skirt. It featured layered tulle ruffles and embroidered petals adding texture and volume.

She accessorized her look with a bright yellow quilted crossbody bag that had a gold chain strap, adding a playful touch and drawing out the golden tones of the floral print. For jewellery, Idia chose simple gold hoop earrings. For her shoes, she wore high-heeled sandals to provide the height necessary for such a dramatic hemline.
Her hair was styled by Dolledbyifyy in a low bun with face-framing tendrils left out at the front. Aisien’s makeup was done by Nosi Cape Town Mua, and the makeup featured warm tones, soft smoky eyeshadow, and a nude glossy lip, complementing the Tuscan-inspired theme of the afternoon.

Idia has always been intentional with her fashion choices. Earlier this year, she attended the Netflix Bridgerton set visit in London and wore a series of custom looks that leaned into old-world grandeur and structure, a completely different direction from the floral Trishocouture gown she wore in Cape Town. But the thinking behind both was the same. She read the room, dressed for the moment.
