After studying finance and business in the UK, Lanre Da Silva Ajayi changed her path and became a fashion designer in Nigeria. However, this did not happen over night.

‘Success, as we all know, is a learning curve that comes with patience, perseverance, hard work and endurance.’

Her passion for the industry is her major driving force to work hard all the time. Lanre’s style is rich in femininity and uses a multitude of embellishments. Lanre was flattered and excited when asked to collaborate on Vlisco’s Season 3 – 2017 lookbook, as she had always loved Vlisco fabrics.  ‘I particularly love how they pay homage to African arts and that they are an authentic Dutch Wax brand, the original Wax Hollandais.’
