The spirit of Ileya Festival just got a serious dose of Naija creativity and star power—reality TV queen Olivia Chioma Okoro turned heads and owned the Sallah celebration, wrapped in an exquisite custom design by the fast-rising Nigerian fashion house Ewongho.

Styled by the acclaimed Gabriel Anthony, Olivia radiated regality in a vibrant yellow ensemble featuring a dramatic heart motif and flowing train. Every detail, right down to the elegant maroon veil and intricate jewelry by Aisha Kasumu of ‘RishaabyAisha’, screamed cultural confidence and modern royalty. Her flawless glam, perfected by celebrity MUA Magjose, blended Lagos sophistication with Cape Town vibes, captured through the artistic lens of top Lagos photographer Ayo Makinwa.

The entire look was the brainchild of Promise Tom, Ewongho’s visionary creative director, founder and CEO, who is quickly carving a legacy of luxury for the bold new faces of African fashion. Olivia, who shot to fame as one of the standout housemates in Big Brother Titans’ debut “Ziyakhala Wahala” season, delivered a simple but powerful message alongside her stunning Eid photos: “Eid Mubarak Barka da sallah.”
