Jorja Smith's outfit on Monday night may have been created by Atelier Mundane, but visually, it was anything but. The 25-year-old singer performed at the closing ceremony of the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games wearing a custom navy motorcycle jacket and matching leather straight-leg trousers that has been stuck in our minds ever since.

"WALSALL AY WE. Did u know Walsall is also famous for its leather?!" Jorja playfully captioned the post. Both her leather jacket and trousers were created by label Atelier Mundane, a relatively new brand formed by London-based sisters Zahra and Sarah Asmail and their graphic design partner Giorgio Lieuw-On.

The singer's jacket included traditional design features that would be seen on a classic motorcycle jacket, including a rounded collar and visible zip detailing. But Jorja's bespoke piece, coloured a few shades darker than electric blue, also featured white accents and a form-fitting silhouette.

Her makeup had a certain understated air of glamour – her makeup artist kept things minimal on the eyeshadow front, instead focusing the drama of her beauty look on voluminous eyelashes and a luminous glossy lip.

Her accessory game was also incredibly sharp – the singer opted for classic silver hoops with interesting spike details, alongside a sparkly choker necklace, which nodded to the cool chrome shades in the hardware of her jacket.
