Fashion Tigress Alert: Yaya DaCosta Spotted in Weiz Dhurm Franklyn at Lagos Fashion Week 2026

· By Fashion Tigress Team


America’s Next Top Model alum, actress, and all-round fashion girlie Yaya DaCosta is currently in Nigeria. The stunning model flew in for 2026 Lagos Fashion Week, and we couldn't help but gasp when we saw her in this heavily embellished mini skirt suit.

Designed by Nigerian brand Weiz Dhurm Franklyn, the outfit is a two-piece featuring a dramatic bolero jacket and a micro-mini skirt. The corset she wore underneath tied the whole look together—creating a snatched waist and an hourglass silhouette.

The look was styled by Styled by Bleu, and I love how he kept the jewelry to a minimum. She wore a pair of earrings that were not only the right size, but whose shape perfectly complemented the embellishments on the outfit.

Watch my breakdown of the look below.
