Every week we highlight a stylish member of the Fashion Bomb Men community. Like our Fashion Bombshell of the Week feature, we send a special shout out to the fashion-forward guys who make Fashion Bomb Daily great.
This year, we received tons of submissions from Bombers all over the world. From impressively sleek tailoring to impactful minimalism, the guys have kept us locked in each week.
However, at the end of the year there can only be one style king supreme. Check out of the nominees for 2022’s Fashion Bomber of the Year:
Rolland’s appreciation for designer shades and short shorts is a case in sleek Cali style. He serves every ounce of sex with a heavy helping of elegance.
Bruce Brown’s fearless approach to fashion is what makes him one-to-watch. With a wardrobe full of statement accessories and the skill to texture block, his style is a treat for the eyes.
No color is too brigh, nor pattern too bold, for model and content creator David-King Fadd. His dynamic style is as attention-grabbing as it is saturated.
Jamauhl mixes minimalism with maximalism. Instead of dressing himself in every color or pattern, Jamauhl styles around his statement pieces to create an impactful look.
Pascal Douglas refuses to limit his style and it’s that confidence and passion that feeds it. Versatile like most style icons, Douglas’ looks offer an outstanding range from fine suiting to patchwork dresses.
Mauricio’s refers to his looks as an extension of his mood. Though, no matter how this style king feels, his emotion-driven fashion sense is told through a cultural lens.
Radley Glaude is a man of many hats. Not only because of his several talents but because the essential accessory plays a major role in his style. Whether in a wide-brim fedora or a sporty baseball cap, you’ll find that he’s rarely fully dressed without a hat.
Two years after the allegedly shooting, today marked day one in the court proceedings between Megan Thee Stallion and Tory Lanez. Meg took the stand in a Los Angeles courtroom wearing a purple suit from Sergio Hudson‘s Fall 2022 Collection 10. The color choice in itself made a mega statement as purple represents domestic violence awareness.

Styled by Law Roach and tailored by Matthew Reisman, the rapper wore her wide-legged suit with a $10,400 Chanel multi-color rainbow bag and black Christian Louboutin pumps. Her asymmetrical bob was styled by Kollen Deryck with makeup by Alejandra Garcia.
We love an outfit with a positive message behind it! What do you think?
In our everlasting pursuit to bring you the freshest, most unique and luxe brands at an accessible price point without compromising on design and A1 quality, in today’s boutique spotlight we are introducing you bombshells to Chéri the label. This young brand founded in 2020 by Miss Sierra Leone Adama Chérif will become your new obsession as quickly as it became our’s at Fashion Bomb Daily. Discover her catalogue, get to know the brand and the designer behind it all as we dive into her diverse background and stylistic point of view!
Fashion Bomb Daily: Hi Adama! Thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself. I read in a blog that even though you are a designer by nature, your start was in finance by trade?
Adama Chérif: I have a strong accounting background and that’s where my love for managing my own business came from. I actually started off modelling since I was 16, I’ve been in a lot of fashion shows at NY and Philly fashion week, and I also have a background in pageantry with Miss Sierra Leone. A lot of those things introduced me to the fashion world and I was introduced to a lot of designers, specifically in the NY area which developed by interest in wanting to pursuit fashion. Every time I’d walk in a show I’d love it, but sometimes I would think to myself “Oh but if they were to do something like this instead, it could be even better!”, so I was like how about I create my own brand with my background in accounting. It was a two in one kind of thing with both of my passions.

FBD: As you know, we’re big fans of your label Chéri! For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about the brand?
AC: The sole purpose of Chéri is to redefine fashion, redefine style by allowing everyone to express themselves through fashion. And what I mean is I believe everyone should have the freedom to express themselves whether its through fashion or any way, shape or form. For me it’s fashion, that’s how I’m able to walk into a room and be like “Yes, I’m that girl.”
So our brand is focused on body positivity and we don’t conform to any stereotypes. I want everyone, including tall girls, to be comfortable enough to wear anything and not feel like we have to adjust something such as our pants not being long enough. Or for being thicker women, not feeling comfortable in their clothes because of the way it may fit them. I listen to the Chéri Babes, when they comment under something. I’ll see people say “could you go for bigger sizes”, and one of the most important things for me was tall woman, because I’m tall myself. I found it very hard to find pants that fit right or a shirt, with long sleeve that fit too short. And so I was like, you know, I think we need more tall things for people like me, which is where it started. Then I dived into thicker women to expand my horizons a little more. Right now we cater to 5’6 +, leaving enough excess at the bottom to extend the hem, and we’re expanding up to a size XXL.
FBD: What are some of your design influences and inspirations?
AC: I create some of my designs and I wholesale some. If I can’t find it in the wholesale world, I’ll make it myself! I have a thing for monochromatic colors, that’s how I came up with the Viola Set.
FBD: Tell us about the ‘Rabi’ collection and what this line of accessories signifies to you.
AC: My mission with that was to promote racial equality, that’s how I started with the black, white and brown. My circle is very diverse, yet I’ve been in situations as a young professional where I was the one who got picked at, so the influence behind ‘Rabi’ was to celebrate those differences and not have to feel like we’re an outcast in those situations. I want my brand to also have a statement and purpose behind it. We launched ‘Rabi’ earlier this year launch, and the name comes from my middle name. Rabi was the one name I was made fun of some reason! So, I was like okay, since you think it’s funny, I’ll make this the name for what I create!
FBD: How has fashion changed in your point of view since you started Chéri?
AC: Fashion is very fast. Things can go in and out of style in a minute which is why I’m kind of diving into making timeless fashion so you can wear it years from now. With things opening back up since launching in 2020, I am also planning on diving into more statement pieces, things people can wear to events.
FBD: Where do you see Chéri in 5 to 10 years from now?
AC: In the next couple years, I’d like to get more pop-up shops out there and 5 years from now, I’d consider doing a major fashion show. With my experience in the international pageantry world, I want to also put more emphasis there with the pageant girls too! I definitely see Chéri being a more international brand down the line!
Here are some of our absolute favorite pieces, available exclusively at Chéri!
Everyone was all smiles at the Los Angeles premiere of ‘The Best Man: Last Chapters’, coming out this December 22nd. On the red carpet, the starring cast posed altogether, including Melissa De Sousa, Morris Chestnut, Sanaa Lathan, Taye Diggs, Nia Long, Regina Hall, Harold Perrineau and Terrence Howard.
With our eyes set on the ladies and their fashions first, they did not hold any style back on this night! Wearing all black, Sanaa Lathan wore a Acne Studios jumpsuit paired with a vintage Chanel chain belt and Paris Texas boots while Melissa De Sousa went for a sparkley Elie Saab jumpsuit styled by Jacqueline Zenere.

We had to get a closer look at Nia Long’s beautiful, frilly feather top, a $275 LAMARQUE design, that she paired with Banana Republic trousers. The top from the Canadian label comes in a multitude of colors available at Revolve – shop the look below!
As for the gents, they, too, brought their star style to the red carpet. Fans were particularly obsessing over Morris Chestnut’s choice to pair his suit with a clean white turtleneck! The midnight blue velvet blazer and black pant were an excellent, eye-catching choice by Brooks Brothers, another Canadian label. His look was styled by Neissa Diabate.
Late last week, A$AP Rocky announced the conclusion of his fresh new album ‘Don’t Be Dumb’ at the Amazon Music Live Concert in LA as he performed three singles off the album with Rihanna in the crowd being the supportive, stylish partner she is!

She wore a look 38 from Prada’s Fall Winter 2022 ready-to-wear collection, a $12,110 oversized tobacco leather jacket. The jacket comes with a shearling-lined zipper hood trimmed with Aspen for a soft effect with delicate color contrasts. Get your’s below!
Now, we don’t know about you all but at 9 years old, skincare and a beauty routine were the last things on our minds! That’s why it’s so refreshing to see rising TikTok star North West have fun with self care from an early age and normalizing healthy habits for kids on the platform.
In her latest reel gone viral, North walks us through her morning beauty regimen! She first goofs off in her holiday-themed PJs placing a make-up headband by The Vintage Cosmetics Company over her eyes before getting into each step.
Chopped and sped up, the reel lasts less than 10 seconds, showing the kids – and the adults – that it doesn’t have to take long to squeeze in some much needed self care in the morning!
Bonjour Bombers and Bombshells! This week’s Fashion Bomber highlight is from the fashion capital.
Based in Paris, Pascal Douglas is a visual artist, Editor-in-chief at PAUL.E magazine, and senior strategist at Fashion Snoops. Whether he’s sitting front row during fashion week or pushing repost-worthy content on social media, Douglas does so with impeccably style.
He’s a fashion fan who doesn’t limit himself and finds his style floating between various aesthetics. His skill in tailoring is reminiscent of a Ralph Lauren ad, while his pairing of leather over a patchwork frock leans on Marc Jacobs’ signature grunge. If you’re looking for range, you’ll find it in his catalog of looks.
If you’re interested in being our Bomber Of The Week, please DM @fashionbombmen a brief description of your personal style (plus name and city) and 5-10 different pictures of your best outfits.

They are each unique in their own way and show talent in the areas of style, beauty, entertainment and so much more.
North West pretty much grew up in the front row of fashion week, so it’s no wonder this young one manages to express such a distinct sense of personal style and is refining it day by day! The now 9-year-old is active on TikTok, showing her millions of followers how she does her own hair and goes about her step-by-step beauty routine all on her own!

The girl knows her fashion references, from the OGs of Aaliyah and TLC to the current of today, like her mom Kim K! North is at an all time high with her fashion, but we are far from her prime or peek. The future is bright for the eldest of the Kardashian-West kids!

The best rain jacket yet is the one you possess, or so they say. Nonetheless, a good jacket does no good if it is hanging in your home and gathering dust. Therefore, a rain jacket must be lightweight and easily packable to carry wherever you go.
You don’t want a surprise downpour to find you unprepared without a raincoat. But beyond the functionality of the rain jacket, women also tend to like the style and would not want to wear something that does not embrace fashion. That differs from one woman to another as style and taste come down to personal preference.
This article will go through some of the best rain jacket women in 2022. That does not mean they are perfect. Of course, they’ve got their shortcomings and strengths as well. Let’s dive right in, then.
Rains Jacket
The jacket is made with 100% nylon which is post-consumer, meaning it is recycled. It provides a fantastic waterproof and breathable performance throughout the day.
I always recommend jackets and industries that embrace minimal environmental pollution, like the Rain’s brand. The Rains jacket not only benefits you but also benefits the earth.
This is the perfect jacket for a day you know it’s going to rain, but you go outdoors anyway.
Burton Veridry 2.5L
Ever had a versatile outfit? Well, here is one. The Veridry can handle any level of moisture while keeping you dry. It has a waterproof and breathability characteristic, making it ready for any weather condition.
This is one of those jackets you can rock on any weather, whether rain or sunshine. It is perfect for all.
The North Face Antora
The Antora is one of those ” rain goes away, but if you are wet, you have to stay” types of jackets. It has a zipper and hood that allow you to face any condition confidently.
Apart from being waterproof and breathable, this jacket is also a windbreaker meaning you won’t have to worry about heavy windy rainfall. Therefore, if you are after style and functionality, the Antora is your jacket.
Rain’s Torrentshell 3L
You have probably heard about the Torrentshell 3L and its incredible features. So, don’t let the rain stop you. Just pick up one of these, and you are good to go. The torrent shell is equipped with Rain’s’s 3L H2No performance fabric that will give you the confidence to face any shower or drizzle.
It has zippers that are storm-flapped and welted and has a zipper that comes up to your chin, making you look like a walking submarine. The best jackets are lightweights, more packable than others, and perfect for emergencies.
Well, the Torrentshell meets all the requirements. Get yourself one of these.
Outdoor Research Helium for Women
This is a durable, lightweight jacket with a classy style that you can wear anywhere you want and not look out of place. It is a water-repellant and also keeps you warm in cold weather.
Back in October Jean Paul Gaultier x Y/Project came out with their widely popular $1,590 Body Morph dress! The one-legged, floor-sweeping maxi was first seen on Yung Miami at Diddy’s November birthday party and has since been worn by several other bombshells in and around Hollywood! So you know we gotta ask, who wore it best?
Photo: IG/Reproduction
While Yung Miami wore the look styled by Shaq Palmer with a yellow mini Hermes Kelly bag and lilac latex sandal heels, Model Roz and her stylist Mikiel Benyamin approached it differently, opting for silver Le Silla heels and a $2,345 Bottega Veneta purse to FWRD’s Jean Paul Gaultier launch.

The love for the pant dress continued as digital creator Ángela Rozas Saiz wore it to the Moet & Chandon Party at Palacio De Cibeles in Spain.

Next up was Didi Stone who accessorized her Y/Project x Jean Paul Gaultier dress with a yellow Chanel bag, everyone’s color of choice, and Tom Ford heels!
