Ilebaye attended the prize-giving ceremony after winning Big Brother Naija All Stars edition looking quite peculiar.

Well, it turned out she took a leaf from the style of American actress Yara Shahidi as she recreated her look. So, we have to ask who wore it better?

Rachel Ruto is no stranger to making bold yet elegant fashion statements, but during the state visit of the Dutch royals on March 18, 2025, it wasn’t just her outfit that stood out—it was her shoes. The Kenyan First Lady stepped out in a pair of brown suede block heels adorned with a gold emblem.

For the 2021 MTV Movie Awards, Yara attended wearing IVY Park by Adidas, Beyonce’s fashion line. The outfit was an althleisure combination of a tracksuit with a corset. But the star of her outfit was her crown hairstyle, which had two twists go across her hair like a crown, as well as her hair being packed in two long braids.

Ilebaya copied the outfit and hairstyle, except her outfit was black, she wore a crop jacket instead and left the trouser zip open. I guess the idea is to keep up with how Gen Zs are known for dressing, which is typically unconventional. 

Who wore it better? Yara, of course; her look was brighter, and the hairstyle looked way better on her.
