Maya Jama At The GQ MOTY Award

Maya Jama showed up for the GQ Men of the Year awards looking like a million dollars in an edgy, daring two-piece. She shared this moment in a collage of videos and pictures, which she compressed into a post captioned “a night with @britishgq and a smokey eye.”

The 10-slide post opened with a short reel that captured her arriving at the event and working the red carpet with grace and sophistication. In the reel, Jama swayed her hips gently as she walked, stopping to pose for the camera while stylishly fiddling with her hair.

A swipe right revealed a picture of her side profile. Standing by a door, she hit the camera with a fierce look, slightly arching her back to elongate her frame. She wrapped up the post with a full-length picture that captured her iconic frame in the daring outfit.

Breathtaking In Black

Maya Jama’s outfit was a high-glam evening outfit with a sultry edge. It featured a black halter-style top with a deep plunging neckline crafted from softly draped fabric that gathered and folded around her bust. The fabric looked to be a lightweight, silky material that contrasted beautifully with the heavier skirt.

Her skirt, crafted from glossy, leather-like material, was high-waisted and midi-length, clinging to her thighs and hips. Its standout detail was a series of dramatic horizontal slash cutouts across the hips and thighs, revealing her skin in layered bands that screamed sex appeal.

The skirt also featured a central vertical panel running down the front and back, adding structure and elongating her frame. There was also a slight dip at the center of the skirt, which further highlighted her hourglass figure.

Maya Jama In Dolce & Gabbana

Jama rocked a vintage 1998 Dolce&Gabbana piece that combined gothic glam with delicate floral details for the premiere of "Love Island" season 12.

Its bodice was a black structured bustier-style bodysuit with defined cups and delicate spaghetti straps, while its lower half was a naked dress style crafted from completely sheer black material.

Delicate clusters of flowers: bright yellow flower buds and green leafy vines were embroidered across the waist and hip and near the hemline, adding a pop of color to the outfit's dark aesthetic.

On her neck, she wore a large, bejeweled crucifix necklace, the perfect accessory for her eye-catching ensemble.

More 'Love Island' Looks

Maya Jama has made a name for herself, rocking statement pieces every time she appears at the villa, and last season was no exception. In one of the episodes, she wore a skin-tight dress featuring splashes of orange, cream, and red on a baby blue background.

The sleeveless number, which stopped just above her knee, had a deep scooped neck adorned with tiny straps that crossed over her chest before connecting to the delicate spaghetti straps. The dress was classy yet sultry with a dash of vintage drama.
