Twitter commentator, Daniel Regha, took to social media to slam the outfits worn by Nigerian singers, Tems and Burna Boy, at the 2023 Met Gala.
The Grammy-award-winning Nigerian singers made their debut at the glamorous fashion event, held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York on Monday evening, May 1st.
Tems, who was styled by Dunsin Wright, donned a custom Robert Wun gown, complemented with a corset-like top and elbow-length gloves.
On his part, Burna Boy wore a custom-made Burberry kingly blue and black outfit, which also had a royal touch.
After the event, Daniel Regha took to Twitter to criticize the singer’s outfits, saying that they lacked creativity and did not represent the Nigerian fashion industry.
He expressed his complete disappointment with Burna Boy’s outfit, saying that Tems should have incorporated African prints in her dress instead of the Westernized dress.
Daniel, who is known for speaking his mind on celebrities, wrote:
“Burna’s outfit to the 2023 Met Gala was disappointing; His hairstyle was OK but the outfit is a no & he wore the same design as Barry Keoghan. Creativity matters. Tems should’ve incorporated an African print in her outfit too. A style icon doesn’t dress to compete or fit a norm.”
