Osas Ighodaro slayed the Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards in a black sculpted 3-D gown.

One fashion favorite was Miss Black USA 2010 Osas Ighodaro. Oozing glamour, style, and sophistication, the actress wore a futuristic, structured black gown by bespoke designer Veekee James. 

The garment’s details were everything with its 3-D black sculpted shoulders, fitted bodice, trumpet bottom, and nude underlay that celebrated Osas’ complexion. The gown’s unique black lines traced the beauty’s entire body, highlighting her fabulous figure.
