On this episode, one particular celebrity found his way back to his roots and stunned us with his colourful traditional outfit.
Other looks that stunned this week were from Toke Makinwa’s look to a movie premiere, and Denola Grey’s casual but gorgeous look to a family lunch.
To catch up with earlier episodes of Fashion Friday, start here.
Now, let’s jump into our list of the most eye-popping Instagram looks this week.
1. Mawuli Gavor:
When we said there was a celebrity who went back to his roots for one of his outfits this week, we meant Mawuli Gavor. Although the actor is Ghanaian, he is beloved by Nigerians because of his looks and for his superior acting prowess.
We think something that may also count for him is his impeccable style. Mawuli Gavor never dresses badly, and for this look, he didn’t disappoint.
He wore the traditional Ghanaian kente to host the African Royalty Night. He accessorized with beads around his neck and wrists. Don’t miss the sunglasses that give this outfit that pop of modern fashion.

2. Toke Makinwa:
Toke Makinwa slayed to the premiere of REDTV’s Assistant Madans in a simple look that was everything.
Toke Makinwa is a constant on our list because her fashion choices, no matter how muted or extravagant they are, are always perfect.
This look is no exception. She wore a straight, wine-coloured, calf-length dress with puffy sleeves to the premiere. Toke accessorized very simply with only a wristwatch and a bracelet, styling her hair in a chic bob to show off her gorgeous shoulders.
Her gold sandals were simple enough to compliment the look without drawing too much attention away from her dress.
This look is a 10/10 in our books! See it below:

3. Denola Grey:
Denola Grey attended a family lunch for his mom’s birthday in a casual look that somehow managed to be extra. The kicker is that the dress code was ‘super casual’.
With that shirt and those black, spiked sandals, who would believe that he was going for casual?
If he was going for serious-looking though, we think he nailed it with those glasses.
Either way, this look is a hit. Check it out below:

4. Diane Russet:
We love a confident and gorgeous woman, and that’s the vibe we’re getting from this picture by BBNaija’s Diane Russet.
Short bobs are in this season, it appears, and in this picture, the reality TV star rocked the heck out of it. She styled it with a cute pink dress, black heels, and a power walk.
You go, girl! Check out the post below:

5. Basket Mouth:
Basket Mouth rocked the heck out of this blue, flower-patterned Mai Atafo suit, don’t you agree?
He paired the suit with a black T-shirt, white shoes, and black sunglasses that made us decide: if we’re choosing a Nigerian James Bond, Basket Mouth should represent. Period.

6. Ini Dima-Okojie:
We’ll never get tired of seeing different variations of blazer suits, especially if they’re as cute as Ini Dima-Okojie’s.
She channelled a boss babe barbie in this bright pink blazer suit. We didn’t miss the matching turtle neck shirt.
She paired this look with a high ponytail and pink lipstick to match her outfit, and it all made us drool.

7. Elozonam:
Fans of the Big Brother Naija show will remember when Elozonam said, right after the show, that he was going to bulk up. Well, he’s achieved his goal.
And what better way to show off than in the traditional outfit he rocked to the Soundcity MVP show. Don’t miss those tight sleeves that especially show off his biceps.
He also didn’t miss a chance to send a shoutout to his fans (who are called Bolts) with the bolt symbol on his outfit.

8. 9ice:
9ice is celebrating his birthday today with some super cute pictures that absolutely made it to our list.
The pictures are both on point fashion-wise and also our mood for the weekend. Who doesn’t want to relax in a super stylish outfit while scanning a magazine for more fashion inspiration?
