Be sure to set the View controller-based status bar appearance in your info.plist file to Yes.

Furthermore, if you are in a UINavigationController, you cannot simply set the style in ViewControllers in it. Subclass the UINavigationController and add this to it:

override func preferredStatusBarStyle() -> UIStatusBarStyle {

    if let vc = self.viewControllers?.last as? UIViewController {
        return vc.preferredStatusBarStyle()
    }

    return super.preferredStatusBarStyle()
}

Now you can set the bar style in the UIViewController subclass and the UINavigationController will listen to it :).
