πβ¨ I’m a self-proclaimed “Couture Nomad,” an extrovert, and a global citizen who’s been fortunate enough to travel the world and soak up diverse cultures, norms, and the rich tapestry of music and art. π¨
As the Couturier and Lead Designer at Lagos Traffic Couture and the Curator of Lagos Traffic Galleries, I’m honored to be seen as a creative trendsetter and innovator by my friends and family. π
Growing up with a Nigerian father and Trinidadian mother introduced me to a musical melting pot—Classical, Afrobeat, RnB, Hip-hop, Calypso, Soca, and later, Afrobeat(s) and Afro-global fusion rhythms. These influences have deeply shaped my artistic vision, with Afrobeat legend Fela Anikulapo Kuti and other iconic figures in the Afrobeat movement inspiring my work. πΆπ«
Fela Kuti’s powerful music still speaks truth to power, highlighting the struggles of politicians and lawmakers around the world. His songs capture the essence of “Suffering and Smiling,” a reminder of the daily struggles and resilience in life.
My collection is a tribute to this inspiration, driven by a relentless desire to CREATE, RE-IMAGINE, and EVOLVE. The phrase “LAGOS TRAFFIC - GO SLOW DEY AREA!” reflects the chaotic beauty of Lagos and my creative process—an analogy for the city’s dynamic energy and my approach to design. π¦π₯
Embracing a mindset that transcends borders, I continue to explore and evolve in the world of couture. My designs are a celebration of global diversity and a reflection of my ongoing journey of creativity. ππ #LagosTrafficCouture #GlobalCitizen #CreativeJourney #FashionInnovation
