ADEKUNLE GOLD WEARS LISA FOLAWIYO SS26 AT LONDON SHOW

Adekunle Gold stepped on stage in London in a look that feels unmistakably him: bold, textured, and deeply rooted in contemporary Nigerian design. For the show, he wore a full SS26 Lisa Folawiyo set, a matching top and trousers in a vibrant aqua-and-rose floral print, finished with the designer’s signature playfulness. The silhouette is relaxed but intentional, letting the fabric and embellishment do most of the talking.

The real highlight is the fringe: long, delicate white strands that drape from the chest down the torso, moving with every shift of his body. It adds a sense of rhythm and fluidity, almost like the outfit is performing alongside him. Paired with his jewellery and a simple black shoe, the look balances softness and confidence in a way only Adekunle Gold seems able to pull off.

It’s a smart styling choice with Lisa Folawiyo’s craft-forward, embellished textures have always leaned toward performance wear, and on AG, the set lands with even more clarity. A proper Lagos-to-London moment.
