From Wumi Toriola’s bold flair to KieKie’s playful confidence, Bolaji Ogunmola’s strength, and Bisola Aiyeola’s elegance, Lagos witnessed a premiere that was more than an event. It was a cultural statement.
Lagos came alive this past weekend as the much-anticipated Nollywood film GINGERRR made its grand debut. The premiere was more than just a movie screening — it was a cultural moment, blending cinema, fashion, and the undeniable star power of Nollywood’s leading ladies.
Produced by a powerhouse team of women — Wumi Toriola, Bolaji Ogunmola, KieKie (Bukunmi Adeaga-Ilori), and Bisola Aiyeola — GINGERRR represents not only bold storytelling but also a statement of unity and creativity. From the very start, the evening buzzed with excitement, setting the tone for what many are already calling one of the most stylish Nollywood premieres of the year.
Themed around a Peaky Blinders aesthetic, the red carpet was a spectacle of vintage sophistication fused with modern Nollywood flair. Guests embraced the challenge, showing up in sharp suits, tailored jackets, tweed patterns, wide-brimmed hats, corsets, and powerful accessories that balanced grit with elegance.
KieKie stepped out in a sharp tailored ensemble styled by Swazzi, with pieces from LDMClothing. She brought her signature energy to the carpet, making her look both playful and commanding.
Bolaji Ogunmola leaned into the power-suit vibe, serving strength and femininity in equal measure.
Wumi Toriola opted for a fusion of rugged tailoring with soft finishing touches, showing that she’s just as bold off screen as she is on it.
Bisola Aiyeola gave the theme her own twist, balancing longline jackets with chic, modern elements.
This was no ordinary premiere — it was an event carefully curated to reflect the essence of the film. The four leads, all serving as creative producers, presented themselves not only as stars but as visionaries. The synergy between their fashion choices and the story they’re bringing to screen created a buzz that extended far beyond the red carpet.
Social media erupted with hashtags like #PeakyBlindersEnergy and #BossMode, with fans praising the commitment to the theme. The styling was cohesive yet individualistic, showing unity while letting each woman shine in her own lane.
The GINGERRR premiere wasn’t just about what we’ll see on screen — it was about setting a new standard for how Nollywood tells its stories, both cinematically and sartorially. The night proved that when fashion and film merge seamlessly, the result is unforgettable.
If this red carpet was anything to go by, GINGERRR isn’t just a movie — it’s a movement.
