His outfit, a luxurious blend of traditional and contemporary designs, was a showstopper. Rich fabrics, intricate beading, and a matching cap completed the royal aesthetic, making Davido the perfect embodiment of Ugo Monye’s vision.

This wasn’t the first time Davido made waves on the runway.

In 2022, fans saw him debut at New York Fashion Week, walking for PUMA in a custom tracksuit. That week was nothing short of eventful for the superstar, as videos surfaced of him with American supermodel Kendall Jenner at the front row of another fashion show.
As a PUMA ambassador, his runway appearance wasn’t surprising, but it solidified his influence in both the music and fashion worlds.

“DAN @puma #NYFW 2022,” the singer posted on X.
