A workwear inspiration feature highlighting corporate fashion ideas from Adekunle Gold’s Toronto concert look, Rita Dominic’s birthday photoshoot, and Akin Faminu’s Paris Fashion Week 2026 appearance.
Monday mornings have a way of making us reach for the same blazer, the same trousers, and the same shirt on repeat. If your work wardrobe has started feeling a little predictable, these three celebrity looks might be all the inspiration you need before your next office day. They each approach tailoring differently, but they all prove that a few thoughtful styling choices can make corporate dressing feel fresh again.
Akin Faminu took tailoring in a new direction at Paris Fashion Week 2026 in a custom look by OJ Clothing. He wore a cropped black blazer with strong peaked lapels, layered over an asymmetric kilt-inspired panel and wide-leg tailored trousers. You may not be wearing a kilt to the office any time soon, but there is plenty to borrow here. A cropped blazer instantly changes the proportions of a traditional suit, while fuller trousers give classic tailoring a more contemporary feel. Even introducing just one of those ideas into your wardrobe can make familiar workwear feel new again.
