A
proven way to breathe fresh air into your style is to be willing to experiment. Recently, Lagos fashion girlies showed that they understood this principle as they sought ambitious ways to project style. From movie premieres to high-profile weddings, their renderings told a story and didn’t care to bend a few fashion rules while at it. Experimenting with different elements, such as mixing a fedora hat with a draped number or playing with multiple textures, the girls created eye-catching looks.
Check out the cool looks spotted on Lagos fashion girlies…
#1. Toke Makinwa
There’s no doubting the ease of chic suits. Apart from the polished boss vibe it brings, the comfort and effortlessness help it score points. Giving a subtle nod to this ubiquitous men’s wear trend, Toke Makinwa celebrated Women’s Day in an off-white suit pumped up with a bob hairstyle. The sleek hairdo was a pleasant contrast to the breezy pants — a balanced coordination apt for a midweek seminar.
#2. Angel Obasi
The Style Connaisseur, as she’s popularly called, was draped in a midi-red dress from the African Dress Shop. She punched up the delightful resort number with a structured hat and beaded mini bag. The beauty of this look lies in the styling—a simple and calculated style move where the dress is the center of attention and accessories can only complement it.

#3. Anita Asuoha (Real Warri Pikin)
It’s customary that every weekend in Lagos, you must witness an upbeat wedding party. An unspoken Saturday rule Lagosians unanimously agree to. Comedian, Real Warri Pikin set in motion snatched and scalding at Moses and Maria Bliss’ wedding in a fitted floral print number by Medlin Boss. The dress fit like a sock, and the beaded details gave premium-or-nothing energy.
#4. Priscilla Ajoke Ojo
Fashion, as we know it, continues to break stereotypes. Priscilla Ojo decked a suave gray suit to celebrate International Women’s Day for an androgynous appeal. She styled it with a black shirt and matching accessories for an understated finish. Indeed, black and gray is a coalition that never misses the style mark.
#5. Sharon Ooja
Denim is an every-day-a-week wardrobe essential. When styled according to the theme, it always comes out correct. Sharon Ooja opted for a sheer turtleneck top, cargo jeans, and a black blazer for a Netflix event. The gold accents on the necklace, earrings, and handbag were a plus for this contemporary service.

#6. Osas Ighodaro
Redhead Osas Ighodaro attended the Essence Hollywood House in a delightful Studio by A.B. Youme dress. The drawstring detail and soft fabric were spot-on in accentuating her frame. For such a soft-hued fit, a pop of color is welcome to spruce up the get-up. In this case, she chose red hair that moved hard.
#7. Chioma Ikokwu
Chioma Ikokwu celebrated IWD 2024 in a Reine Roi RTW white number featuring a sheer midriff, scalloped neckline, and a knee-high slit for a dash of sassy. If you plan to recreate this look, keep the colors soft and the details loud, or try a fitted gown with an asymmetrical neckline for a more interesting look.
