How to Dress Like a Nigerian Celebrity: 7 Styling Hacks from Top Fashion Experts

In 2025, Nigerian celebrities continue to set the bar for Afro-glam, global elegance, and unmistakable swagger. Whether they’re walking red carpets in Lagos, shutting down London fashion weeks, or serving “owambe” looks on Instagram, one thing is clear — style is serious business.

At DUNMS TRENDS, we’ve decoded the top 7 styling hacks from fashion insiders, stylists, and red-carpet veterans to help you rep your roots and still slay like a star.


⭐️ 1. Tailored is the New Sexy

Celeb Inspiration: Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, Nancy Isime
Whether it’s an agbada or a tuxedo, fit is king. Celebrities don’t wear oversized, off-the-rack outfits. They invest in tailoring that sculpts their figure. From nipped waistlines to sharp shoulders, custom fits instantly elevate your look.

🪡 DUNMS Pro Tip: Bring your body measurements to our in-store stylists for a custom-fit consultation. We tailor Ankara, lace, and suiting fabrics on-site.


👟 2. Accessorize Like You Mean It

Celeb Inspiration: Tiwa Savage, Davido
Watches, chains, statement earrings, turbans — these aren’t just extras, they’re part of the story. Accessories speak of confidence and class.

💎 DUNMS Must-Have: Try our bold Zara-inspired earrings or embroidered men’s caps to complete your look.


🔥 3. One Signature Piece = Instant Fame

Celeb Inspiration: Denola Grey, Toke Makinwa
Every celeb has a signature piece: a blazer, a funky boot, or even a dramatic headwrap. This one detail makes them instantly recognizable.

Stylist Hack: Browse our London-meets-Lagos fusion pieces at DUNMS for standout Ankara jackets or bespoke footwear.


👗 4. High-Low Styling is the New Luxury

Celeb Inspiration: Ayra Starr, Burna Boy
Mixing designer with thrift, vintage with trendy — celebs are blending local and global fashion effortlessly.

👠 DUNMS Pick: Pair our affordable lace blouse with bespoke palazzo pants and elevate with a designer handbag.


🌈 5. Color Blocking = Bold Confidence

Celeb Inspiration: Ini Dima-Okojie, Fireboy DML
Nigerian celebs embrace bold hues. Think mustard yellow, emerald green, or even a full-on orange look.

🎨 Color Secret: Use the DUNMS Color Wheel in-store to discover what hues make your skin glow.


🧳 6. Travel Chic: Airport Looks that Land

Celeb Inspiration: Tems, Wizkid
Even at the airport, celebs serve comfort + class. Joggers, oversized shades, and limited-edition kicks are must-haves.

✈️ DUNMS Lounge Set: Our new Afro-Athleisure Collection gives you effortless celeb energy — even while waiting for Uber.


💅 7. Confidence is the Finishing Touch

No matter what you're wearing, wear it like you’re on the cover of GQ or BellaNaija Style. Confidence is the one thing that can’t be bought — but it can be styled.
