As the buzz for Priscilla Ojo and Juma Jux’s Tanzanian (and final) wedding set to hold 26th May grows louder, it seems fitting to draw attention back to the not-so distant past where the model, influencer and socialite built her reputation as a style maven long before she met her one true love and husband.
I have taken the pains to compile some of her iconic fashion highlights that made her a Gen Z trendsetter:
1. The Owambe Look
If there was ever a jaw-dropping look that I find myself coming back to again and again, it has to be this. Everything about this look gave off old money aura. From the spectacular red gele to the all white lace dress, and the glittery accessories, Priscilla Ojo stunned everyone with this unique but classy Owambe look.
2. #CHIVIDO2024 Look
For the much anticipated celebrity wedding of that year, the influencer wore a corseted silver lace gown complete with a custom silver clutch bag.
3. Bridgerton Season 3 Movie Premiere Look
Priscilla embraced Regencycore during the Bridgerton season 3 movie premiere wearing a light green ball gown with puff sleeves and silk detailing. The look mirrored the series’ elegance but with a unique, breathtaking twist.
4. AMVCA 9 Look
Priscilla Ojo’s look to the 2023 AMVCA, styled by the brilliant Emmanuel Goodnews was a truly a sight for sore eyes, with intricate detailing consisting of sand-coloured corseted bodice, and cascading threads of earthern brown beads at the waist which pulled to mind, images of ancient African regalia.
5. Her 23rd Birthday Look
Once again styled by Emmanuel Goodnews, Priscilla wore a crystallised mesh crop top paired with a denim silvery crystal-adorned miniskirt (complete with detachable cape), and denim knee-high boots.
