After which I quit my job as s radio presenter to pursue this dream

What informed your participation at the Winasbet NSFDW?
Vovwe: I got a mail, inviting me to participate at this year's edition
of Winasbet NSFDW. I
called my school principal Mrs sola babatunde. She advised me to run
with it. So I did.

What was going through your mind as you were making your collection?
Vovwe: Well I really jusy wanted to make clothes that ladies of all
social strata could wear and feel classy, special and excellent in. My
passion which is to bring class into street fashion as such replacing
the usual trashy
looks inspired the collection .

 How has Winasbet NSFDW affected your career as a designer?
Vovwe: Honestly, Winasbet NSFDW has affected me positively, my confidence has
since been boosted, it has challenged me to be even more creative and
mature in my designs. The show also has increased the number of people
who now know about ovemsfashion. Its been great.

Through the various stages of the show, did you ever think you were
going to be the last designer standing ?
Vovwe: Oh no! I never ever in my widest dreams thought it would be me. I
was indeed favoured by God.

How do you feel about going on to participate at the Africa
Fashion week Nigeria for free?
Vovwe: I am excited but saddled with thoughts of the responsibility and
high level of creativity that would come with it. Its a privilege I
want to use properly to make Mrs Ronke Ademiluyi proud.

 The most important thing you learnt from your participation at the
Winasbet NSFDW?
Vovwe: One word, uniqueness. In the fashion industry every designer must
have something unique about his or her work.

 What kind of clothes do you make and what demography do you think
would especially favour them?
Vovwe: My clothes range from causal, to coporate, street and high
fashion. Not only ready to wear but also bespoke ( special order
service). Ovemsfashion has been favoured in all demography. As long as we
have people who love to look classy.

Advice to other upcoming Designers like you?
Vovwe: They should never give up, they should keep pushing, be
hardworking and prayerful. They should also try to come on board next
year and register for Winasbet NSFDW as its now the biggest Fashion
Week in Africa for emerging fashion designers.

Thank you so much for this opportunity. Am grateful to the organisers
of theWinasbet NSFDW and Mrs Ronke for the award. Also grateful to my friends
