London Fashion Week couldn’t have ended with a bigger bang than Mowalola’s spectacular show, Dirty Diop. Buckle up because nothing could’ve prepared us for the creative chaos, electrifying energy, and jaw-dropping fashion moments that took place on that runway.

Voir was right in the thick of it, and we’re bringing you the spark that had the audience on fire.

Welcome to MOWA WORLD

Nigerian designer Mowalola Ogunlesi turned up the heat with her bold, unapologetic collection that defied the limits of what fashion can be. Bigger and wilder than ever, this show felt less like a presentation and more like a fever dream of edgy, rebellious, and liberated expression.

As our editor Jyoti Matoo said,

“You know you’re invited to something big, but nothing prepares you for the madness and genius you’re about to witness. You walk into a hangar, and the energy slaps you in the face. Just what, just wow.”

A Show on Fire

The atmosphere? Unmatched. Mowalola took us to an underground rave, a private night of mayhem. The set, designed by Tor Studio, featured a customized neon-lit cage, an electric bed, and an all-encompassing vibe that screamed unapologetic fashion rebellion.

Models strutted, danced, and checked themselves out in bathroom mirrors, while electro-rock guitar riffs flooded the space, thanks to Foushee and her electric guitar performance.

The star-studded lineup? Unforgettable. With icons like Irina Shayk, Yves Tumor (aka Sean Lee Bowie), and Crystalmess, gracing the runway, each brought their own edge to Mowalola’s unhinged universe.

Irina Shayk, who opened the previous show, this time closed the curtain with an aura that left us in awe.

The Performance of Fashion

It wasn’t just a fashion show—it was a performance. Mowalola herself took to the runway alongside Detoblack and Chi, turning the show into a real-time, multimedia art piece.

Belen Mar Leroux also gave us a fierce performance, crawling on all fours with an iconic head toss, adding to the wild energy of the event.

Beauty That Commanded Attention

The makeup was a work of art in itself, led by the legendary Isamaya Ffrench. Think: doe eyes with exaggerated lashes, sharp contours, and accentuated dark circles that gave each model an almost alien-like ethereal glow. It was raw, unapologetic, and totally in sync with the collection’s boldness. It wasn’t just makeup—it was a statement.

Details that Set the Stage on Fire

What truly made this collection iconic was the attention to detail. From the metal thongs that felt both avant-garde and daring to red ensembles and tights that dominated the collection, each piece brought something fresh to the table, giving to the show, a raw, sensual aesthetic.

Innovative fashion moments were abundant: animal prints, latex nearly everywhere, mini skirts paired with custom masks emblazoned with “Mowalola,” oversized bags that read “Ebony,” and bold, structured vests. The 3D makeup work by TildaX further enhanced the futuristic, boundary-pushing look.

A priceless fashion mood board universe, Mowalola dives us deep into her world, where fashion is performance, art, and rebellion.

Hailey Bieber

https://www.instagram.com/p/CsZEtL1uSmp/

As one of several looks for the Rhode London launch, Hailey wore this floral set from Coperni. Giving us major 2000s vibes, it consisted of a padded-shoulder, collared top with a single clasp, short shorts, kitten heels, and a handbag, all in a shiny black material. 

Maya Jama

https://www.instagram.com/p/CrwP7EdBTcn/

For a dinner with friends, Maya Jama wore this insane denim maxi dress. The dark wash bandeau style featured pockets at the top and rips down the midriff, as well as a flared bottom with a ripped hem. She paired it with slingback bejewelled heels from Amina Muaddi and a chunky silver bracelet. 

Amina Muaddi

https://www.instagram.com/p/CsY9mvnrJJb/

The designer wore this flowy monochromatic look for the Gucci Resort 24 show in Seoul. She wore this black asymmetric Rick Owens off-the-shoulder dress with puffy sleeves, a thigh-high slit, and a draped mini train. She paired it with black platform sandals from her own heel brand and a white Gucci Jackie bag. 

J Lo

https://www.instagram.com/p/CsJZnYnrMVB/

JLo looked so chic, opting for neutral colours in this off-duty look. To complement her natural glam makeup, she wore a nude trench coat over a black jumpsuit, cinching in her waist with a gold statement belt. She added nude heels, gold hoops, black sunnies, and carried a black Max Mara clutch. 

Rihanna

https://www.instagram.com/p/CsMtfN-PJAl/

Posing with boyfriend A$AP Rocky and their son, Rihanna looked ultra cool in futuristic Balenciaga sunglasses. She wore a black strapless bandeau over a pair of baggy Louis Vuitton monogram jeans. She loaded up on the accessories, wearing diamond earrings, a gold chain, and stacking gold bracelets and rings. 

Mariah The Scientist

https://www.instagram.com/p/CsO0NT_pvg8/

Performing on tour, Mariah wore this deceptive Y/Project x Jean Paul Gaultier dress, featuring realistic-looking jeans and a striped tank top on both sides. She paired the maxi dress with black knee-high boots and a cross necklace, diamond watch, and diamond bracelets.

Aimè Pradis Brown

https://www.instagram.com/p/CsZuVzcPqmn/

The super fashionable influencer looked like an early 2000s Barbie, wearing this pink ruffled halter dress and matching pink gemstone necklace. She accessorised with big gold hoop earrings, a gold Versace chain belt, and 2000s shield sunglasses. On foot, she wore Dior slide heels, and she went for Dior again with her newspaper-print saddle bag. 

Khloe Kardashian

https://www.instagram.com/p/CsUhLbqOrGW/

For an Usher concert in Las Vegas, Khloe stepped onto her private jet wearing this black and white crocodile print dress from Alaia, with cut-out sides, thigh slits, and a high neck. She paired it with some lace-up stilettos from Paris Texas, and a teal-blue crocodile Birkin.

]]> It feels like it was only yesterday that we celebrated New Year, welcoming 2021 with our hearts full of hope, anticipating what the next 12 months would bring our way. And just like that, in the blink of an eye, we are in November already. Ladies, it’s time to start planning our outfits to ensure we celebrate festivity’s in style! To help you navigate through the sea of sparkle, glitter and bright colours, we decided to share some great celebrity party looks for your inspiration. 

Sarah Jessica Parker

Years go by but SJP remains a glorified fashion icon, never failing to surprise us with her jaw dropping outfits. She was photographed rocking this look whilst filming a scene for the new movie “And Just Like That” in New York on Nov 9th. This ensemble is a good example of how a simple black jumpsuit can be elevated through statement accessories like a shiny necklace, a golden handbag on a chain and heeled sandals with colourful rhinestones. A fuchsia blazer thrown on top of your classy black understated outfit will make sure that you will not go unnoticed.

Kim Kardashian

Who gives a better example of how to embrace your amazing curves than Kim K? This leather look body hugging maxi dress from the Fendi x Skims collection is the epitome of sexy and classy. This outfit would be a great option for a lady boss who is brave enough to be in the spotlight for the whole night at a corporate party. The dress tells the story here so be careful not to overdo the jewellery; some diamond studs and a matching bracelet will be more than enough to complete this stunning look. 

Rihanna

Rihanna’s looks are not for the faint hearted, and this outfit is no exception. Riri says that its self-confidence, not the physique that creates sex-appeal. We could not agree more! Don’t fancy breaking the bank getting an outfit for a night out with your girls? You don’t need to. Opt for an oversized graphic tee and accessorize it! Wrap a studded black belt around to accentuate your waist and add some pearls, rhinestones and chains (a lot of them!) to create this fabulous look. Add high heeled perforated boots to take this outfit to the next level, and you are ready to rock & roll!

Dua Lipa

In the mood for something more girly and feminine? Check out this cool outfit from Dua Lipa. Nothing screams “girly” more than pink and butterflies. Besides, the 00s style is making a loud come back this year. It is still not too late to re-create your own version of Destiny’s Child meets The Charmed outfit.

Miley Cyrus

Miley Cyrus has demonstrated on many occasions how to let your inner rebel out, and there is no better scene for channelling this energy than a night out in the club with your friends. Make Miss Cyrus your sprit animal this party season with a 70s inspired ensemble, and don’t forget about the sexy smokey eyes and wild voluminous hair… Life is too short to always be a good girl!

Anya Taylor Joy

Anya Taylor Joy had us all fall in love with the 60s fashion again after the release of the famous Netflix show “The Queen’s Gambit”. If you would like to emulate this era on your Christmas night, you could spice it up by choosing a crop top or a bralette instead of a conventional blazer. Opera gloves will give your Jackie-O-gone-wild look an extra edge.

Zendaya

Do you know the secret to being a real fashionista? Zendaya certainly does. If you’d like to look like someone who just stepped off the cover of a fashion magazine, opt for an eclectic style. At first glance you may think that nude pumps don’t really go with a multi-chain halter top. Correct? Correct! But this unexpected mish-mash of garments is exactly what gives your outfit an editorial vibe! The cut of Zendaya’s skirt is quite traditional for an office lady. Yet the bold checked print creates a totally different mood. Mixing items of different styles is an art that takes time to master… Be brave and don’t shy away from experiments! One thing to remember though is the colour palette. If garments complement each other colour-wise, it’s a good start already.

Olivia Rodrigo

October Fest has gone but who said you can’t be inspired by a traditional Bavarian look for a Christmas party to have some fun? Self-irony is another regalia of a real fashionista. But don’t get too carried away recreating this style to the point it becomes a costume! Olivia Rodrigo knows how to resort to fashion references in style. Tartan print will give your corset that grunge Vivienne Westwood flavour of a catwalk item. Refrain from using the predictable petticoat and opt for a satin (an unexpected fabric in this case!) skirt of a matching colour that will emphasize your incredible curves. A statement necklace of some quirky shape will be a final fashion element in this creative look.

Ariana Grande

How would a modern Aphrodite who just came out from the sea foam look like these days? Most probably like Ariana Grande in this photo. This beautiful Neptunian dress makes Ariana look very feminine, fragile and ethereal. However, an oversized dad blazer and sparkly pink statement shoes make this outfit very trendy at the same time.

Winnie Harlow

Winnie Harlow just gave us a useful masterclass on how to build your whole outfit around some stunning designer statement high boots, making them the centrepiece of her whole outfit. If you have similar boots in your closet that you are considering for a party, go for it! Don’t overcomplicate the upper part of your body with shiny fabrics and bright colours. A simple bodysuit in black (or even a mesh one for anyone feeling bold ) paired with a faux fur coat or gilet will do the job. Add some accessories and jewellery and you are ready for the unforgettable night!

Ciara

Burlesque theme will always be popular for a Christmas party. If you’d like to look elegant and stand out from the crowd, go for a mono-colour outfit like Ciara. A Christmas night out is the perfect excuse to go over the top and use those beads, pearls, platforms, heels and satiny fabrics. Shine bright, this is your night girl!

Emily Ratajkowski

If going over the top is not really in your nature, take a look at Emily Ratajkowski’s simple, yet quite frankly amazing look. The goddess-like maxi skirt elongates her amazing figure and makes her look classy yet gorgeous. A see-through bodysuit/top, on the other hand, creates that edgy and seductive vibe that many of us would like to achieve to make this magical night the one to remember.

Chiara Ferragni

This timeless look by Chiara Ferragni is a style that can never go wrong. A little black sequinned dress is always a great choice for any party, any time of the year. When choosing one, look for an interesting neckline and a statement belt that will accentuate your assets. The mega trendy over the knee boots will create a very sexy fashionable look. If you opt for slightly lower heels or flats, you will also be able to dance your night away which is always great news!

Camila Coelho

This look reinvents the standard casual denim outfits, by pairing the cropped jacket with a maxi transparent tutu skirt. Be creative with your choice of undergarments to pair these items with. The set doesn’t have to be an expensive designer one, but an interesting print like Camila Coelho’s, will definitely make a loud statement. Add a bright handbag with some clashing print to complete this killer look.

Aimee Song

Diamonds are ladies’ best friends, especially on a Christmas night. When wearing a black outfit, you can get away with a lot of them: massive chandelier earrings, embellishments on the skirt, crystals and beads on the shoes and the bag. If sparkle alone is not enough, opt for a perforated top with a deep cleavage like Aimee Song. A simple black blazer will not only keep you warm but will also tone the whole look down and add a classy finishing touch to your whole outfit.

Part of the reason why stylists are so high profile in the industry is that they are responsible for dressing our favourite celebrities and the way they’re presented to the world. From the most beautiful couture gowns for red carpet events to the meticulous styling of hair, magazine covers, and photoshoots, this job is quite an art form itself.

Stylists not only dress models and celebs, they have the role of making each and every one of their clients their absolute best, according to their personal style and fashion direction, always making reasonable statements and with the intent of being memorable, and remembered through history. Sounds like a lot of pressure?

They influence how people look at fashion, beauty, hair, and the latest trends. People look to them to see what their favorite celebrities are wearing. Stylists provide insight into the industry on designer clothing, behind the scenes of styling a celebrity or client, along with what trends people are wearing.

Stylists give a new perspective on how people perceive fashion, beauty, and hair as a whole, and they quickly build a cult following after working with famous artist/ simply because people recognise the masterminds behind their idols.

We’ll be featuring our favourite stylists who have received the likes of Beyoncé, Rihanna, and Zendaya, and who have also directed the styling for magazine covers such as Harper’s Bazaar and ELLE. And what better fashion affair is there than to be working with the best designers in the world, like Gucci, Dior, Valentino… but also having the creative input to create custom pieces for the most exclusive clientele?  

Not to mention how stylists have access to the best designers’ archives, as well as contacts with the best experts in their fields. It is thanks to Instagram that many of these inspiring creatives have received the spotlight they deserve: by giving their fans a glimpse into their career and sharing valuable information regarding how to always look the best, it’s easy to recognise why they are so admired. One thing is clear: if you like a celebrity, you’re guaranteed to love their stylists, as the way a celebrity is portrayed is probably the result of their stylist’s imagination.

As we dig deeper into this mesmerising career, here are a few celebrity stylists you should be following on Instagram ASAP:

Lorenzo Posocco

Everyone seems to have noticed Dua Lipa’s glow up evolution, and part of the reason behind her transformation has to be credited to her stylist. He always pushes her boundaries in terms of creativity within her looks, whilst remaining authentic to her style. He styled her in every recent event and performance, and if they’re able to keep up this pace, this dynamic duo is for sure going to reach stardom. 

Veneda Carter

Veneda Carter is Kim Karadashian’s stylist. She is the input behind her most memorable looks, and that in itself is more than iconic.

Bryon Javar

His clients include Saweetie, Jennifer Lopez and many other A-listers. Yung Miami showed off a beautiful red velvet dress from Lena Berisha. He is also no stranger to directing the artists’ looks on their music videos and live performances.

Law Roach

Boasting more than 700k followers on Instagram, Law Roach is arguably Hollywood’s buzziest stylist right now. His clients are all very high-profile celebrities like Zendaya, Anya Taylor Joy, and Tiffany Haddish, and has recently worked with W Magazine, ELLE, and Marie Claire, but also at events such as the Met Gala, Critics Choice Awards, the Golden Globes, and several campaigns for Givenchy and Valentino.

Evanie Frausto

Evanie Frausto has worked as a hairstylist for Alexia Demie, Bella Hadid and Lil Nas X. His most recent works include JT and Lil Uzi Vert for Homme Plus Magazine, Precious Lee for Harper’s Bazaar, and Lil Nas X for his Montero music video.

The time has finally arrived, spring is here and with it comes the easing of lockdown measures. With open outdoor bars and restaurants, we have re-programmed our priorities and spending time outside has become our new must.

However, even if we’ve all been waiting for this moment we must admit that the transition from at-home lockdown attire to presentable outdoors one it’s not as simple as we imagined.

But luckily for us, social media is here to help… and who better than Devon Lee Carlson to guide us through this wardrobe change.

The 26 years old influencer, business owner and all-round creative has been taking over our Pinterest boards with her versatile style and fun approach to fashion. Her vivid looks that incorporate high fashion and streetwear are the perfect inspiration to get out of your lazy loungewear and prepare for these upcoming days.

Have a look at our favourite Devon Lee Carlson looks to recreate this spring:

Sundress With a Twist

Contrast for spring can be groundbreaking after all and Devon Lee Carlson has just shown us how. A patterned sundress, a contrasting blazer (preferably oversized) matched with some black pumps and your favourite accessories can elevate the simplest of spring looks while making the most out of classic wardrobe pieces.

Low-rise Chic

It’s hard for us to admit but low-rise trousers are back and they might be the perfect item to spice up your style and achieve that effortless yet chic look we all seem to love. But it doesn’t stop there, instead of going for your usual low-rise jeans and a cute t-shirt why not opt for some textured trousers and a fun corset as seen here.

@DevonLeeCarlson

Western Romance

This silk all-white co-ord set together with the western style cowboy boots are a fun take on a romanticism-inspired outfit. One that includes our favourite elements from the iconic Orseund Iris delicate designs and Paris Texas rustic features. Oh, and let’s not forget about red, a pop of colour in the choice of accessories that complete the look, making it send out with its colour coordination.

Elevated Casualwear

Who would’ve ever thought that a black floral blouse put together with neon-cycling shorts could look this good? Effortless, fashionable and undoubtedly comfortable. A picnic-ready look that’s perfect for the days in which you want to look good but without trying too hard.

@DevonLeeCarlson

Jean on Jean

The queen of coordinated looks inspired us once again with this timeless jean on jean look. Jean jackets are a must-have in everyone’s closet, especially for in-between seasons, they’re easy to wear and can complete any look as shown here… even better if worn with a matching skirt, some ‘extra’ gold accessories.

@DevonLeeCarlson

Versace, please

A look to kill for. The Versace La Medusa collection set with its neon colours, frill texture, and length mix-match is the perfect option for a sunny and elegant brunch with your friends at your favourite rooftop restaurant. If Versace is not an option (or a ratherun realistic one) don’t worry, any set with a fun pattern or print can do the job and be a daring alternative to your usual suit or spring dress.
