Ebuka Obi-Uchendu showcasing modern menswear tailoring by Atafo.
What’s a Sunday on Big Brother Naija without looking forward to Ebuka Obi–Uchendu’s look? Is that even a Sunday? Of course not. Every Sunday, the host of Africa’s popular reality TV show steps onto the BBNaija stage in style, and we get to pick up a few fashion and styling ideas along the way. For those who may need a quick introduction, Ebuka is a Nigerian television host, lawyer and media personality best known for hosting Big Brother Naija, where his live-show looks have become almost as anticipated as the eviction itself.
So, what is he wearing this evening? Let’s start with the custom creation by Nigerian fashion house Atafo. Ebuka wears a dusty periwinkle blue double-breasted crossover shirt-jacket, featuring wide peak lapels, a double-breasted button arrangement and subtle metallic pinstripes. Sitting between a shirt and a tailored jacket, the piece has the structure of formal tailoring but a softer construction that makes it easier to wear beyond a traditional suit.
