Denola Grey knows how to make a suit impossible to ignore.

The Nigerian actor and style personality arrived at Onalaja’s Spring/Summer 2027 show during London Fashion Week in a custom chocolate-brown suit covered in sequins and swirling copper and gold beadwork.

The tailoring kept the look polished despite all the embellishment. Deep brown satin lapels gave the jacket a classic shape, while beaded fringe falling from the blazer and trouser hems brought movement to every step.

Underneath, Denola kept things surprisingly simple with a gold bee-patterned ribbed tank top. Aviator sunglasses and a slim gold chain finished the look without adding unnecessary competition.

It is the kind of outfit that could easily become too much, but the strong tailoring keeps everything in check. The result feels glamorous, playful and distinctly Denola.

Another front-row appearance, another reminder that menswear does not have to stay within the lines.
