What makes your style stand out?

My style fuses the drama of rich African textiles with sleek, modern tailoring, creating unforgettable silhouettes that command attention. I envision presenting these creations on Parisian runways and collaborating with top French maisons, infusing haute couture with Africa’s bold colors and intricate artistry—proving our heritage belongs at the heart of global fashion’s most glamorous stage.

What’s your dream fashion moment?

My dream fashion moment is debuting a runway collection at Paris Fashion Week, where African-inspired designs share the spotlight with global icons. I envision models in bold textiles and modern cuts, the audience captivated by the fusion of tradition and innovation. This moment would celebrate African creativity, elevate my brand internationally, and prove that African fashion belongs at the pinnacle of style.

What would you do with $20,000?

I need the $20,000 to expand my fashion brand in my hometown into a studio that meets international standards. The funding will upgrade equipment, source premium fabrics, and train local artisans, enabling world-class production. My goal is to showcase African craftsmanship on global runways and digital platforms, creating jobs and proving that African fashion belongs on the international stage.
