The musician is among scores of celebrities flocking Palais de Tokyo for this year's Paris Fashion Week Menswear Spring/Summer showroom from Wednesday, June 25 to Sunday, July 2, 2025.
The flowery flats Black Sherif wore are listed on Fashion Network as part of Wales Bonner's Spring/Summer Menswear look collection.
The fashion brand was established in 2014 by English designer Grace Wales Bonner, who had styled top stars including Lewis Hamilton, FKA twigs, Omar Apollo, Jeff Goldblum, and Tyler Mitchell.
Wales Bonner is best known for its preppy bohemian aesthetic, embracing the multifaceted nature of its founder by combining all aspects of her interests, personality and background.
Additionally, the brand promotes conversations about contemporary social issues surrounding gender, sexuality, race and politics via its films, lookbooks, campaigns, collaborations and runway shows.
Black Sherif, who is having a solid year after releasing his sophomore album Iron Boy, doesn't shy away from bold fashion either.

His unpopular Wales Bonner look for Paris 2025 adds to a tall list of Black Sherif's heavily criticised looks. This includes his outfit for the BET Awards 2025, which caused a significant frenzy on social media.

Black Sherif's mishap in Takoradi deconstructed
Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that an event organiser had spoken about Black Sherif's delayed performance at the Takoradi Mall Event Centre
Concertgoers expressed their frustration by pelting him with water due to his tardy arrival on stage. They said he arrived ten hours late for a concert billed for 7 pm.
Black Sherif’s management team reportedly rejected the previously agreed-upon payment just one hour before the artist’s scheduled performance, as per the event organiser's account.
The organiser accused the artist and his team of demanding more money minutes before the performance despite signing a contract. The entire situation infuriated concertgoers who reverted to the argument that Ghanaian artists don't respect their audience.
