00:00Hi Harper's Bazaar, I'm Thames and today I'm looking through some of my favorite fashion moments. This is fashion flashback
00:08Okay, so this look is from my Jimmy Kimmel live
00:13performance in
00:142021 the designer is
00:17Valerie Kowalska. I just remember most of
00:21The emotions that we're going through first performance, you know trying to bear it all
00:27Almost but not really just slightly. It's very sheer. It's very open. I love diamonds
00:33I'm wearing this diamond earring from a lovely vintage store that we found. I like classy
00:42Looking things this day was very funny because it was my first time on any
00:46Tonight show in America my stylist and everyone around was fixing things on my dress
00:52But I didn't think there was anything to fix and I was slightly
00:56Just on edge. I
00:59Love this look. This was the mobiles
01:022021
01:03Awards, this is a custom tie Haken
01:07What drew me to this look was the color the print on it. I love the sleeves
01:14It's like dangerous, but then it's still kind of classy. It's my first time performing at an award show in London
01:21This was like so much fun. Everybody was dancing. This was like a lit night
01:27This
01:30Look was the BET Awards
01:332022 and this was Dallara
01:36This is the highest it's I ever wore but this was just like very daring
01:41It's a corset supposed to be like really like provoke almost but still classy. That's why there's diamonds
01:49Even though there's like mesh and it looks a bit crazy, but still
01:53You know, we did the hair it was in 90s inspired look this night there's a funny video
02:00I thought maybe whiz was there too and
02:03They had announced the award and that we won for essence when they called it. I didn't stand up
02:11And the camera was on me
02:13I saw two guys coming and they were staying in front of me and I was like wondering
02:18Why are you here and they called it and everybody was like looking at me and I was just looking at them and I was
02:24Just sitting down looking like, okay
02:30Like five seconds of awkwardness me and everybody else in the room my face blown up and I was just kind of like
02:40Really?
02:41So as a fun night, ooh
02:44Ooh
02:45This is the Grammys
02:482023 and this is custom Vivienne Westwood
02:52This whole look was a surprise when I saw I was like, wow, this is actually amazing
02:58Anything that brings out my curves. I love I don't usually wear pearls
03:03But this was like the first time I did a pearl thing and I stuck some in my hair and I did like a two-piece
03:09Thing that's it just add some craziness. I felt like a princess in this dress. It was really a moment for sure
03:18This dress this is leather couture the famous dress
03:24It was a huge deal. It's my first Oscars when I first saw this dress that this was what was happening
03:30I was like, this is quite much. You know, this is quite a lot for me the way it flows
03:36It looks like a cloud. It looks like a flowing
03:39Stream, it looks like otherworldly. It was big it was but then it's a high slit
03:45I felt like a real-life princess like everybody was just like turning and people were taking pictures with me
03:52Even even though they didn't know me like prestigious like old
03:57White man, I was like, they don't know me, but they just thought I look cute
04:02we were supposed to change from this look inside but we didn't get the time to and the
04:09Scooped my stylist away. So I was literally stuck with this and then it became the whole viral
04:15Moment with the girl and and the blocking but there was no blocking just I need to put that out there
04:21The person behind me he loved what I was wearing and he could see because the stage was up
04:27So nobody looked straight
04:30When I meet anyone in fashion, they always tell me about that. Look like oh, yeah
04:36You're the girl you're the one that caused all that trouble that day
04:40This one was the Vanity Fair Oscars party. I'm in Mono. This was actually one of my faves
04:49It's just sits well on my body. It has the wrap around my hips which falls down and this necklace is
04:58Yves Saint Laurent by Tom Ford. It's very simple very classy, but it has a bit of
05:04Edge is like is this a superhero's necklace? Like what is going on my glam?
05:11Well, I love love love a good highlighter. I just kind of kept it
05:16simple nice gloss brows on
05:20100 lashes going crazy lips always glossy. You have to spice things up you really do
05:28This was the Met Gala
05:302023 and this dress was
05:34Robert one the theme was Karl Lagerfeld a line of beauty. This was actually
05:40Referencing an old Chanel look where Karl did a lot with like feathers and he did a lot with headpieces
05:47And he also did a lot of black and white the skirt parts
05:52It's a corset, but the skirt parts is actually supposed to look like a shirt
05:56So that's the collar on the front and the two things at the side are supposed to represent
06:01The arms it was slightly difficult to move in to be honest
06:05The corset was very tight like they snatched me like they pulled me
06:12I almost couldn't breathe the shoe is is also kind of like just adding to that that
06:19Pointy heel. This is actually a bag when I walked on the carpet people thought that maybe I broke my shoe
06:26It was so funny is when I was waiting in line to go next before I went next before they called me
06:34The lady she looked down and she was like, oh temps and then she looked at me. She was like you like headpieces, don't you?
06:43Like Wow
06:46Giving me some spice
06:49Yes, you're right I do love headpieces
06:54This is time 100 next
06:582023 I'm in
07:01Danielle Franco. This one is one of my favorite looks ever. It's a bridal piece
07:07I thought it was just very beautiful. I thought more like actually yes, I am showing you that I'm a young bride
07:15So the bag is so cute. It looks like a pearl
07:19Almost but it's in a glass box and I just thought that that was very significant to the vibe that I was going for
07:26This is who I am
07:27Actually, everything you wear should be a reflection of who you are and I think this really reflects me inside. I'm promised
07:35You know, I
07:38Am also a princess, you know in real life. So I just thought it was it's very fitting
07:45This dress. Holy smokes
07:48This is the billboard women in music
07:532024 I'm in a liar. This was a very memorable night
07:57I felt like a black swan that night and which is why I did my hair like that
08:03I love Bantu knots, which is very African. It's very Nigerian hairstyle
08:09We decided to add the first sleeves to match with the bottom, which I think was a really good choice
08:16You know, it's giving something extra and it's fitting. It's just right
08:20I didn't hear at the time, but there's a video from this night where I turned to pose the
08:28Photographer he was like, holy smokes
08:33And everybody was laughing and at the time I didn't know what I was like, okay, I'm just gonna do my thing
08:39I just thought it was so funny. Like wow, I must have done something, right?
08:44This was my first Coachella Coachella
08:492024 and I'm wearing John. This is one of my fave looks this year for sure
08:55it has frills all over the bust and on the neck and it's
09:01Crossing over and then when you go down the dress, it has shiny flowers. They're like almost
09:08Sequence I really love this hair
09:11I feel like it went perfectly with the outfit every time I moved it moved
09:17And I move you move just like that. So I
09:22Didn't plan for
09:24anyone to come specifically on my set Wizkid he was around and
09:29You know, we asked if he could come out and he was like, oh, yeah sure
09:34And then I got a message from Justin and he was like, oh, you know, I'm around if you wanted me to come out
09:42To Coachella, I'm down, you know, and I was like what the stars are aligned like what is going on?
09:49Crowd went crazy. Literally the floor was shaking and we had a good time. I couldn't have asked for a better set that day
