Nigerian superstar Wizkid made waves at the prestigious BoF 500 Gala in Paris, showcasing not only his musical prowess but also his impeccable fashion sense. The award-winning singer turned heads as he confidently stepped onto the red carpet in an ensemble that blended both sophistication and edge.
Wizkid sported sleek black leather pants paired with an unbuttoned white shirt, layered over a classic white tank. The unbuttoned shirt added a laid-back yet daring flair to his look, perfectly complementing the edgy leather pants. The outfit was a testament to his unique ability to blend casual street style with high fashion.
However, what truly elevated his look was the addition of a CHANEL Première Sound watch necklace—a standout piece that added a luxurious touch to his outfit. This bold accessory demonstrated Wizkid’s deep understanding of fashion and his talent for mixing classic and modern elements. The CHANEL necklace, more than just an accessory, reflected his individuality and flair for merging contrasting elements to create a cohesive, bold look.

Later in the evening, the Afrobeat sensation took to the stage to perform his global hit, Essence, to an eager crowd.

The audience, including many influential figures in the fashion industry, was visibly captivated as Wizkid’s signature sound blended effortlessly with the sophisticated ambiance of the event.
