The style icons once again put their best style forward, delivering hair and makeup goals that gave us major inspo. They were nothing short of spectacular, chic and edgy. It’s safe to say that we are as usual, living vicariously through them.
While the rest of us were busy navigating that classic complex situation, it seems there were a number of celebrities still bringing it when it came to their wardrobes- from occasions to awarding winning nights and there about. Fashionistas like Idia Aisien, Yemi Alade, Toke Makinwa, Mimi Yina, Delphine Okoronkwo and others.
We live for red carpet and paparazzi pictures. It was no easy task to whittle down the ample number of Almaplusblog Style Icons of the week, the 10 A-Listers below won our hearts.
The 2022 AMVCA was a night to remember, to say the least. And Nollywood’s biggest stars came together to party after the 8th Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards on Saturday, May 13 in Eko Hotels And Suites.
What’s better than a red carpet show…the after-party of course! The awards night was only just the beginning of the evening’s standout fashion moments. A-list celebrities geared up for the handful of after parties—with a variety of memorable outfit changes, of course.
Check out all of the stars who showed up to the 2022 AMVCA All White After-party below:
This year, the Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards red carpet came back in full swing. Stars (and their all-powerful stylists) are reaching for decadent and statement-making AMVCA ensembles. Designers have been turning out more and more cerebral, fantastical, and emotional formal looks over the past two years, and many celebrities have been eager to embrace this new feeling of unbridled, big-personality glamour.
As anticipated, the stars dialed up the glitz, displaying bright and bold colours, creative silhouettes, jaw-dropping necklines, and gowns with floor-length hems. While Osas Ighodaro stunned in a shimmering gold sequin gown, Bonang Matheba turned heads in a pink dazzling gown. And for the men, Denola Grey donned a super cool stylish suit.
A handful of stars stood out. Ahead, our best dressed of the evening—and how they stack up to the legendary best dressed of yore.
