FUNKE: Let’s give it up for Adesuwa here, looking like a modern day Cleopatra. Although it can be argued that Cleopatra was African but with the Arab conquest on Egypt, this little detail can be overlooked. I love her head accessory, which beautifull­y matches the applique shimmer and fringes on her dress. The dress in itself sits elegantly on her and I also love how she has matched her shoes and bag to the silver shimmery details on her dress. Her smokey eye makeup with henna tattoo completes the look. Way to go Adesuwa! STYLE: 8/10 THEME: HIT MOJI: I totally agree with Funke, Adesuwa looks divine and elegant in this ensemble. This outfit was well thought of, everything is perfectly coordinate­d and being a sucker for fringe dresses I’m totally in love with the look. STYLE: 8/10 THEME: HIT

FUNKE: Beverly has always pushed the envelope when it comes to bounderies and this outfit is no different. Her headgear is more Indian than Arabian and the costume...let’s just say... not sure what country. STYLE: 6/10 THEME: UNDECIDED

MOJI: Less they say is always more; don’t think Berverly has heard this before. I don’t really have an opionion about this outfit but I’d say a touch of Indian than Arab. It is overpoweri­ng... but uncertain whether positively or negatively. Leaning towards OTT one must confess. STYLE: 5/10 THEME: MISS

FUNKE: What’s not to love about how Idia looks, but this outfit again screams Indian even though she looks stunning! What made her outfit even more unique was the play of lace with her top and the black flared skirt worn under her colourful wrapper. Some innovation certainly came to play here. Very well thought out! STYLE: 9/10 THEME: MISS MOJI: I also have to agree with Funke on this one. More Indian than Arabian but if I must say she looks like a gorgeous Indian bride and that, you can take away from this outfit. STYLE: 6/10 THEME: MISS

FUNKE: For a big movie star like Omotola, one would have presumed she would stick to the theme but like some others, she chose the Indian route...a mistake made popular that evening. From the waist up, she looked nice but the pleated skirt almost overpowere­d an otherwise sexy outfit. And that bag? Overkill!... STYLE: 6/10 THEME: MISS

MOJI: This look is more Indian than Arabian, but I applaud Omo Sexy for her attempt. She could have made do without the necklace but otherwise I like the play of colours and tones in her outfit. STYLE: 6/10 THEME: MISS

FUNKE: Inidima was one of the few that got the dress theme right for the movie premier of The Wedding Party 2. I love the exaggerate­d off shoulder long sleeve top with its matching Arabian style pants. Her hair is simply packed into a high ponytail yet stunning with the hair accessory. I also love the thick pile of gold bangles that draw attention to her hands, which is adorned with minimal henna tattoos. Her smokey eye makeup finishes up the look beautifull­y. STYLE: 9/10 THEME: HIT

MOJI: Red is one of my favourite colours and this outfit is stunning on Inidima. From the off shoulder exaggerate­d sleeves to the matching harem pants, she looks stunning. She has also beautifull­y accessoriz­ed her outfit and polished off the look with dark makeup. STYLE: 8/10 THEME: HIT

FUNKE: Love love, love. Toyin looks like a life size Princess Yasmine from the Disney movie Aladin and she has left nothing out replicatin­g this look. From head to toe she has channeled her inner Disney princess character and it has turned out gorgy. If I had to pick out one thing I loved the most, it will be her hair but I love everything about this outfit. Beautiful. STYLE: 9/10 THEME: HIT

MOJI: Toyin never lets me down. From the colour of the Princess Yasmine inspired Arabian outfit to her hair, she completely nailed the look. All that is remaining is for her Aladin to find her. STYLE: 10/10 THEME: HIT
