She is one of Nollywood’s most prolific producers and actresses, and on Tuesday, Ruth Kadiri proved her style credentials are just as impressive as she kicked off the new month with a truly sensational look.
The screen icon, 38, took to the internet to share a series of stunning images, leaving her 3.7 million followers in awe of her avant-garde ensemble.
Greeting her fans, she simply wrote: “Happy NEW MONTH FAM!!! Where are you seeing this post from? ➡️🇳🇬 KADUNA.”
But it was her outfit that did all the talking. The actress put on a show-stopping display in a structured denim creation that blurred the lines between fashion and art.
The masterpiece was crafted by the visionary Nigerian designer Josiphiah Michael, who is renowned for transforming everyday denim into one-of-a-kind sculptural garments. The look featured a figure-hugging strapless bodice that flared dramatically at the hips into an architectural peplum, complete with intricate folds and structured panelling that showcased the designer’s signature ‘rare silhouette’ aesthetic.
The outfit wrapped around her curves, culminating in a daring, thigh-high slit that offered a glimpse of her toned legs.
Not a single detail was overlooked, with her glam squad creating a look worthy of a high-fashion editorial.
Her flawless makeup was the work of Lagos-based celebrity artist Ewatosin Makeovers, who gave the actress a clean, polished complexion, a sultry, smoky eye, and a perfectly defined nude lip that allowed the dramatic outfit to take center stage.
Completing the look, celebrity hairstylist Emmanuel Obinna, known professionally as Flare Hair, styled her tresses into a sleek, bone-straight black ponytail that cascaded elegantly down her back.
The entire breathtaking scene was captured by the acclaimed Lagos photographer and creative director Edos Artistry, whose dramatic lighting and expert eye turned the photoshoot into a work of art.
Fans who want to command the same attention can commission their own unique, statement-making piece directly from the designer, Josiphiah Michael, for a look that is guaranteed to turn heads.
