London Fashion Week opened with a moment that felt as symbolic as it was stylish. King Charles III made an appearance at the opening of London Fashion Week, which this season spotlighted British Nigerian designer Tolu Coker and her latest presentation. Held at the iconic 180 Strand, the show, titled Survivor’s Remorse, unfolded as a layered exploration of nostalgia, memory, and community. From the outset, it was clear this was  a runway moment and a cultural one. The collection leaned into Coker’s signature storytelling approach, where fashion becomes a vehicle for heritage and emotional recall.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by BellaNaija Style (@bellanaijastyle) Setting the tone for the evening was an opening performance by Little Simz, whose presence added another layer of meaning to the show’s themes. The collaboration also carries history.

Teniola Aladese is clearly not over Valentine’s yet and honestly, neither are we. The actress and style star stepped out in a striking red mini. It is playful at first glance, but the closer you look, the more intentional the details become. The bodice is sharply structured in a corset inspired fit, finished with sheer mesh panels that contour the silhouette with precision. Across the bust and skirt, three dimensional rose appliqués bloom in dense clusters, giving the piece a sculptural, almost couture feel. It is romantic, yes, but with enough edge to keep it firmly in modern territory. Then comes the real moment. A deep burgundy chiffon train spills softly from the shoulders, creating contrast against the brighter red base and adding movement that elevates the entire look. What could have read as a simple mini suddenly carries drama and presence, very much in the spirit of lingering Valentine glamour.

Because who knew Nigerian brands were serving winter wear this chic? For the longest time, conversations around Nigerian fashion have been boxed into occasionwear, bridal, and warm weather dressing. But this moment proves what insiders already know. Nigerian designers are not just thinking locally. They are designing for a global wardrobe and every single season that comes with it. Jackie’s look delivered exactly what good winter fashion should. Structured. Plush. Polished. And most importantly, stylish without trying too hard. What makes this moment particularly exciting is what it signals. Labels like Imad Eduso are expanding the narrative of what Nigerian fashion looks like on the global stage. Yes, we have mastered occasion dressing. Yes, our tailoring is elite. But winter wear?

Just as food nourishes the body, fashion nourishes presence. Before a word is spoken, before a proposal is pitched or a deal is signed, appearance has already begun the conversation. Across African societies, presentation has never been accidental. From ceremonial attire to everyday dress, what we wear has always communicated respect, readiness, status, and intention. Clothing was language long before it became a trend. Yet in today’s professional and creative spaces, fashion is often dismissed as superficial, an afterthought rather than a tool. The truth is simple: how you show up influences how you are received.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by BellaNaija Style (@bellanaijastyle) Style as Silent Communication Personal style is one of the most immediate forms of non-verbal communication. Fit, grooming, colour, and structure quietly signal competence, confidence, and self-awareness. When intentional, they reinforce credibility. When neglected, they distract from it. In business-facing environments, whether creative, corporate, or entrepreneurial, appearance sets the tone. It does not replace skill or intelligence, but it frames them. A well-presented individual communicates care, clarity, and readiness without explanation. The African Context of Presentation In African culture, appearance has always carried weight. To present oneself well is to […] The post As Food Fuels the Body, Fashion Fuels the Business appeared first on BN Style.

It usually happens in the mirror, not the wardrobe. You are dressed. Technically ready. Hair done. Shoes on. Bag packed. And yet, something feels off. You do not look bad, but you do not quite feel like yourself either. The outfit is fine. Appropriate. Acceptable. But it does not reflect how you want to show up. You catch your reflection one more time before stepping out and think, this will do. Not because it excites you, but because you do not have the energy to fix it. For many women, this quiet disconnect has become normal. Getting dressed is not dramatic or chaotic. It is emotionally flat. And that is the exhaustion no one talks about. The issue is rarely a lack of clothes. It is a lack of clarity. Most women own enough to be presentable. Enough to make it work. But not enough pieces that truly support their lives as they are now. Outfits are often built on compromise. What fits today. What is clean. What will not draw attention. What feels safe. Over time, style stops being expressive and starts becoming functional in the most draining way. Dressing well did not always feel like this. But somewhere […] The post Why Dressing Well Should Be Easy, Not Exhausting appeared first on BN Style.

Braided ponytails (Shuku) are having a serious moment right now. The sleek stitch braid ponytail, especially the ultra small versions, is literally everywhere. It is polished, dramatic, and undeniably pretty. But before you rush to your braider with screenshot in hand, there are a few important things to keep in mind. Let us start with the truth many people skip. Stitch braid ponytails, particularly the tiny, tightly gripped ones, are not a protective style. Yes, they look neat. Yes, they keep your hair tucked away. But the constant tension at the crown and hairline can place significant stress on your scalp. Over time, this repeated pulling can contribute to traction alopecia, which is gradual hair loss caused by prolonged tension on the follicles. If you are considering the look, the goal is to enjoy the style without sacrificing your hair health. Here are the key steps to note.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by WAHEED AMINAT |THE STYLE STUDIO| Natural hairstylist (@d.style.studio) 1.
