Chioma Ikokwu ‘ATE’ Met Gala 2024 Theme with 2 Tree Dresses at the 10th AMVCA | WATCH
If Africa needed to nominate one (1) style star to represent the continent on a global stage, you bet many BellaStylistas would vote Chioma “GoodHair” Ikokwu! The reality TV star, lawyer, and entrepreneur hits hard and never misses!
Chioma has proven herself a master of fashion over and over again, so it was no surprise to OGs that she “ATE UP” the Met Gala 2024 theme — The Garden of Time — just 5 days after the fête at the 10th Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards (AMVCA) rocking two (2) mesmerizing tree dresses from one of her all-time faves, Nigerian designer, Weiz Dhurm Franklyn.
Look 1
Chioma 1st fed our eyes with an avant-garde dress featuring a beautiful lace bodice, overlayed with gem embellishments and a golden centrepiece that extended into branch, stalk and leaf-like protrusions.
The lower end of the dress was covered in contrasting tan structured fabric, tapped at the edges with matching golden stripes, that mimicked the shedding bark of a mighty tree — illustrating the passage of time in the garden. Swipe through the carousel below to view:

Look 2
Aptly named “The Vine“, Chioma’s second look mirrored the delicate twists and turns of the vine stitched onto an embellished sheath sheer mermaid dress.
