It is with sadness and heavy hearts we report the passing of Dapper Afrika, an industry fixture, stylist, and artist.
A self professed “Wardrobe Icon,” Dapper Afrika’s unique style sensibility was hard to miss at industry events like New York Fashion Week. His ensembles invariably mixed African prints with bold accessories like bracelets, necklaces, and hats.
More than his sartorial flair, Dapper Afrika will be remembered for his sweet spirit and positive energy. In an industry that can be cutthroat, Afrika was always kind. In a word full of conformists, he was one of a kind. He will be missed.
During his career he contributed several editorials to Fashion Bomb Daily, featuring Tweet, stylist Joiee Davis, and more. Please reflect upon his life and legacy through the photos below:
His family is accepting donations for his home going service. Contribute here.

May he rest in peace.
Angela Simmons knows what works for her body, and that’s what makes her style so effortless. While on her leisure, she opted for Fashion Nova’s ‘Serving Looks’ Lounge set, and such a name is so fitting. For a bright sunny day, you can’t go wrong with all white with some fresh kicks. Did we mention how trendy polyester is especially for athleisure wear? It comes as a two piece set (Jacket and Joggers), with mesh and buckets details. I think this look is a go! Snag yours here for $60, Bombshells.
Today’s Bomb Product Of The Day is a pair of comfy flats with intricate designs that are “hand-crafted, hand-carved, and absolutely one-of-a-kind“: the Mochiis carved flat shoe!
Founded and co-founded by Tanu Tokle and Zeba Parkar, Mochiis thrives on making innovative flat shoes for women while also bringing attention to some of the world’s most skilled artisans. Each flat is truly a work of art as each craftsman takes their time in placing a detailed pattern of floral and paisley carvings on each shoe.
Mochiis’ carved collection consists of the Sedona and Elora flat which are both currently on sale for $145 (regularly priced at $175). The shoe is made of 100% soft leather to offer a luxurious feel with a padded insole and gel arch support for comfort and durability. Mochiis’ carved flats are the perfect day-to-night flat as they can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion.
You always need a good flat shoe, so make your next purchase purchase worth it by getting Mochiis hand-carved flats!
Jenny Lin has the kind of style worth raving over any day; there’s no doubt about it. And best of all, she snags the most Bomb pieces you Bombshells can get your hands on, too! Let’s get into how dope this all black outfit is, that’s a cross between sporty and chic. We’re loving how she aimed for a sleek heel to elevate her look even further, as if these Fashion Nova ‘Fearless Cargo Joggers’ weren’t enough. For your convenience and style, there’s two front and back pockets with cool cargo details, and is stretch twill that can hug any shape nicely. Convinced? Snags yours here!
Last night, we witnessed MTV’s annual Video Music Award ceremony with all of the hottest chart-topping artists, celebrities, and more in the building!

Afropunk’s annual festival went down over the weekend, showcasing Black resilience and resistance through fashion, music, and art! Every year, Black festival goers show what punk means to them through their creative outfits, beauty looks, and eccentric hairstyles. We’ve rounded up 10 creative hairstyles from Brooklyn’s 2019 Afropunk festival that we can’t get over!
Antoinette Henry took the typical festival flower crown to the next level with this custom headpiece by YIREKNKYI.
Nothing gets more Afropunk than braids forming the continent of Africa as spotted on Tasha aka @theblackrogue.
Lisa Hurley (@happyhappyphoenix) unlocked her inner Queen status with a custom look by Jen Nollaig!
Tushiya aka @naturalettet gave us modern day Joan of Arc vibes with an edgy chainmail look!
Ntombi (@ntombimoyo) truly stepped outside the box and gave us a taste of color with a punk hairstyle. This screams Camp!
Mila Koren (@milakoren) showed us how to spice us the bald look by adorning her head in pearls!
@kazejewelz gave us a taste of true African culture with her flower petal braid hairstyle which was executed and adorned by @ancestralstrands.
Head wraps can take a look from a 0 to 10, but a festival goer showed us that there is no limit to what you can do with a head wrap. She dressed it up with flowers and tulle for an even more show-stopping style.
@bellelongueur got in touch with her natural, earthy side by adding an array of butterflies to her twists which she put in a bun.
We’ve been seeing the pom pom ponytails everywhere lately, but never this long and colorful! @theyluv_thakid rocked two ombre colored pom-pom ponytails while attending Afropunk.
Sarah aka @saraiigabrielle combined two hairstyles into one creative masterpiece which formed a space bun mohawk adorned with silver barrettes.
Assina aka @assina_dreams gave us all kinds of Afrocentric vibes with her look!
Would you rock any of these bold styles?
Amara La Negra always keeps it hot when it comes to her looks and style. She recently posed on Instagram in chic look, featuring an animal print Fashion Nova bodysuit and we have details on how to secure this bodysuit!
Amara was on the prowl Fashion Nova’s $29.99 “Catch The Vibe” bodysuit! This bodysuit comes in a trendy animal print along with a plunging neckline, making it a sexy wardrobe must-have! Pair with a pair of nude pants like Amara or white pants like the Fashion Nova model and you’ve got a bomb day party or brunch look.
If there’s nothing we can appreciate more than a Bomb Product to rock in fashion, it’s how versatile an outfit can be made with the same piece! For a special shoot with our Bombshell of a model Dajah Dorn, we showed three ways on how to wear these white distressed Rayar ‘Billionaire Jeans’! Get in to it below.
With Sai Sankoh’s ‘Nawara Goddess’ Kaftan, you’d be bright, bold and beautiful in a product most fitting for an End of the Summer engagement, or a sunny destination while the weather still suitable soak in. It’s hard not to rave over a the prints and colors that matches perfectly well with something simple and fresh feeling as white jeans.
For a night on the town, perhaps you want to keep it casual but still spice up your look with major texture, and patterns. Paired with Fashion Bomb Daily Shop’s NFW ‘Black Vogue’ Tee and India Monae’s Embellished Denim Jacket, you’re guaranteed a look!
Our third look is so simple, but we’re loving how much attention will be placed on the best thing that makes this outfit so trendy, still: those Jeans! You can never go wrong with all white especially when there’s good accents placed on the look to elevate it to another level. This look is definitely a go!
We’re feeling all three, of course. But tell us your favorite look you’d rock, Bombshells! Be sure to purchase more products from Fashionbombdailyshop!
