THE BACKGROUND

Career and background

Benson has traced her interest in clothes to her Nigerian heritage and to her mother, who studied fashion before moving to England. As a child she helped choose the designs that a tailor would make for family celebrations. She grew up in Hertfordshire and has described fashion as a way to express herself when she felt shy.Source: Who What Wear ↗

Her fashion work includes a River Island collaboration drawing on both the retailer’s women’s and men’s ranges. Benson said she wanted the selection to resemble her own wardrobe, with versatile clothes that could work across a busy day.Source: River Island ↗

WHO’S WITH WHOM

Relationship history

Tolami Benson is engaged to Bukayo Saka, whom she began dating in 2020. They kept their relationship private during its first years before appearing more publicly together from the 2022 World Cup onwards. Saka proposed in 2025, and the couple continue to share relatively little about their private life.

One of her best-known matchday pieces carried a personal reference to Saka’s early career: Antonia Bronze’s Euro 2024 leather jacket combined the England crest with 87, his first Arsenal squad number.Source: British Vogue · Antonia Bronze interview ↗
