Alima Oyofo: Sexy Piping hot!
For Alima, what started as an experiment at her sister’s factory – Odio Mimonet just about four years ago has morphed into the Brand ‘LilPepperfriend’. The phrase which is derived from her nickname ‘atawewe’ or ‘small pepper’ reflects the vibrancy of the Brand. Lilpepperfriend was established in the summer of 2008 and is synonymous with eclectic one-of- a-kind accessories[bags and Ankara/aso-oke slippers], edgy colours that pop and indeed has been described as art by all lovers of all things cultural and current. At the Vlisco show in Feb. 2009, ‘Lilpepperfriend bags where showcased alongside Odio Mimonet and they served as the perfect complement to the fantastic outfits thus eliciting a standing ovation from the enthralled audience. Alima is a unique artist undefinable by boundaries. Her beauty is matched with her brilliance, her unpredictability matched with a consistency in delivery, all in a small frame bursting forth with life and vivacity.
NADEJDA OMOTOSHO - Creative Analyst
Pretty Financial Analyst, Nadejda Omotosho who is the founder of Aidan-Mo bags has been silently honing her skills with her unusual high fashion pieces. Another vivacious fashion accessory designer, her style of bags is extremely flexible yet sophisticated, adventuorous yet conservative. She glitters with creative skills drawn from a confluence of ingenuity and inspiration. Although Nadia, as she is popularly known, is no longer with Adrian-Mo as the full time CEO, she continually provides full time creative direction for the Brand that began in her living room.
LUCY ODIM – Independent Style
An Independent woman by all standards, Lucy’s courtship with fashion began after she graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in French. Lucy’s crave to be independent propelled her to create traditional outfits popularly known as Senegalese which was greeted with rapt attention. With time her growing clientele demanded more and Lucy was thus pressed with creating a suitable accessory to complement her unique designs. Her crave saw her reject the trend of Bag merchants, and she began to churn out her own personal designs. Today D LUNE [Her Brand], showcases versatile works running from leather to the damask, aso-oke and a diverse range of eye catching works of art.
LINDA MESROB – The Stitch Princess


Davida Okparah, the Barrister turned pristine Shirt Maker, has leapt off the edge, breaking every rule with her latest collection - POWELA. The 2004 St. Moritz Style Awards Winner - Davida's vintage shirt-making prowess was put to the test on this collection as she ventured into the unfamiliar territory of dress-making. The shirts are anything but ordinary and mundane. From what I can identify, the collection outlines three major genres; from the sassy office wears which spice up the bland day, the classic shirts, highlighted with a touch feistiness and the demure dresses with the subtle undertones appropraite for the sexy chic. This inimitable collection with its dazzling eye-popping colours, intricate designs and inspiring brilliance; confers upon the style fashonista the right to be FIERCE, FABULOUS AND FLAWLESS.
