Fashion Gone Wrong: Tiwa Savage, Harry Song, 5 Other Nigerian Celebrities with Epic Fashion Fails

When it comes to living in the spotlight, there are many perks as well as downsides. One of such downsides is the inability to get away with common mistakes like ordinary people.

As a celebrity, making major fashion faux pas could easily make one top the trend lists, and no doubt becoming the topic of discussion on every site.

Over the years, the spotlight has witnessed Nigerian celebrities serving looks for days and some other times, disappointing their fans terribly.

Legit.ng has compiled a list of seven celebrities who at one point - or on several occasions - failed to impress with their questionable choices of outfits:

1. Tacha

The 2020 AMVCA awards had many highlights and one of them was the peculiar choice of outfit BBNaija star, Tacha, showed up in.

Not only did it leave the major part of her blossom exposed, but the little black dress also revealed more than it ought to have as the tummy trainer she wore also did an appearance on the red carpet.

2. Omashola

Still at the AMVCA, Omashola took coronavirus awareness to a whole new level when he showed up in a Tiannah design, a sequin dress with skulls wrapped in the same fabric.

For many social media users, it was a major fashion miss.

3. Tiwa Savage

This red and black outfit remains one of the talented singer's most disastrous looks. Tiwa who appeared at the Access Mavin Concert in 2016, had social media users buzzing with mixed reactions over the inspiration behind the hideous look.

5. Harry Song

The 2020 AMVCA unarguably witnessed some of the worst celebrity fashion in recent years.

Harry had people wondering what inspired his peculiar look of agbada paired with a cotton shirt and a turban, until he was pictured with Pretty Mike and well, @Tife_fabunmi had something to say below:

6. Kiki Omeli

The Nollywood actress is known for her flawless character interpretation in movies but her look at the AMVCA was anything but flawless.

While the hairdo was forgivable, her dress wasn't - especially the 'chest pads' which looked like a last-minute attempt at modesty.

7. Olisa Adibua

The popular On-Air Personality left quite a number of people confused with his look at the Africa Magic Viewers Choice Awards Nominee Announcement in December 2014.

While his 3-piece suit seemed pretty acceptable, his decision to pair the look with a pair of slippers was a big no-no.
