he fashion moments from Simi Sanya and Femi Dapson’s traditional wedding just keep coming and one couple who clearly understood the assignment was Hilda Baci and her partner Damilola Akinwunmi.
Styled by Emmanuel Goodnews, the pair stepped into the celebration in coordinated shades of blue, delivering a look that felt fresh, polished, and completely wedding-ready.
Hilda, the three-time Guinness World Record holder whose marathon cooking session captured global attention, chose a gown that played beautifully with colour and texture.
The mermaid silhouette hugged the body closely, beginning with a structured corset bodice shaped with a sweetheart neckline and soft off-shoulder straps. The bodice appeared in a soft sky-blue shade, finished with turquoise floral lace appliqué that gave the design a dimensional, almost sculptural effect.
From the waist down, the gown transformed into a true colour story. The skirt shifted gradually from rich cobalt blue to teal before deepening into emerald green at the hem. Dense beadwork covered the entire skirt, creating a jewel-like surface that shimmered beautifully under the light.
A mid-thigh slit revealed green crystal-embellished strappy heels that tied neatly into the colour palette. Hilda completed the look with a vibrant turquoise gele styled with a dramatic floral fold, while a long braid fell elegantly over one shoulder. Her makeup leaned warm and glowing, allowing the rich tones of the dress to take center stage.
Damilola matched her colour palette while staying firmly rooted in traditional menswear. He wore a powder blue agbada layered over a navy embroidered waistcoat, introducing depth and contrast beneath the flowing robe.
Powder blue sokoto trousers, black loafers, and a navy-and-white patterned fila completed the outfit. The accessories kept things sharp and modern round tinted sunglasses, a gold watch, and a silver bracelet that added subtle polish.
Between Hilda’s jewel-toned gown and Damilola’s classic agbada, the duo stepped into the celebration looking perfectly in sync with the colourful energy of the day.
From the bridesmaids in purple and turquoise to guests in coordinated palettes, Simi Sanya and Femi Dapson’s traditional wedding has quickly become one of the most fashion-filled celebrations on the timeline and Hilda Baci and Damilola Akinwunmi’s look fits right into that stylish moment.
