US Vogue magazine, \u201cthe world\u2019s most influential fashion magazine\u201d has hailed him as Nigeria\u2019s most stylish Musician.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n According to a piece in the magazine, not only can he\u00a0pull off\u00a0neon yellow zebra-print pants onstage, he\u2019s also deeply committed to fashion in a broader sense, recently\u00a0hosting\u00a0a dinner in New York City where he donned a bright blue suit topped with his signature bucket hat; in this case a black nylon number from the recently relaunched\u00a0Prada Linea Rossa\u00a0line. And now, with his new video for \u201cPull Up\u201d\u2014a highlight from his recently released album\u00a0African Giant<\/em>\u2014his colorful sense of style has reached vibrant new heights.<\/p>\n Burna Boy is styled by his sister, Ronami, who painstakingly ensures that his personality always shines through. If we had to describe his style, we would call it effortlessly cool, and even though he never looks conventional, he hardly ever misses the mark. \u201cHis style has always been eccentric. He\u2019s very big on deviating from the status quo which is my M.O. as well so it\u2019s always an easy transition on stage and off stage. It\u2019s \u00a0all in the details, the subtle fashion quirks e.g sunglasses, socks etc. Whether in view or not his socks tell a story in relation to every outfit. It\u2019s so bad that I now know the different sock textures appropriate for different shoe styles to ensure comfort etc.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The summery clip from the video, directed by Meji Alabi, finds Burna Boy donning two different garments cut from the same bright yellow cloth: the first, a jumpsuit that he wears with a pair of futuristic sunglasses; the second, a sequined button-down and black leather pants. Even though Burna Boy\u2019s wardrobe is as kaleidoscopic and eye-catching as ever, the crew of model friends he rides around with throughout the video are also doing their best to steal the style spotlight. Aweng Chuol,\u00a0Camille Munn,\u00a0NyaLuak Leth, and\u00a0Chanel Taylor\u00a0each bring their own outstanding \u2019fits, from a bright red leather bucket hat and trench combination, to bold denim corsets, to asymmetric jumpsuits. Burna Boy\u2019s style might be singular, but he clearly knows when to step back and let others shine, too.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
