Ziva Lagos is a ready-to-wear fashion brand founded in Lagos in December 2016 by Tania Omotayo. They started with a mission to become the market leader in delivering fast fashion to women across Africa at affordable prices. 

My favourite thing about Ziva is the prints. They are absolutely gorgeous. Subtle yet striking colours and patterns. I would wear them anywhere. I came across them doing research for this piece, and my cart is already full. Not only are they pretty, but they also won’t break the bank. They also have a summer sale! So, this is the best time to shop till your fingers drop!

Zephans & Co is a ready-to-wear women’s fashion brand founded in Lagos in 2015. They describe themselves as “made with ❤️ in Africa” and design pieces for the global, fashion-forward woman. Whether it’s a tailored midi, breezy resortwear, or soft loungewear, every item is crafted with intention — clean lines, flattering cuts, and standout prints.

I love their silhouettes. Tailored yet feminine, with midi-to-maxi lengths that work on all heights (yes, tall girls included). The is a perfect example. It is soft, vibrant, and playful without trying too hard. It’s the kind of piece you wear once and immediately get asked, “Where did you buy that?”

Kai Collective is a contemporary, ready-to-wear brand founded in 2016 by Fisayo Longe. What started as a passion project during her travels became a statement line rooted in bold prints and quality fabrics, like the viral , designed in collaboration with Grapes Pattern Bank, which Vogue Netherlands and Elle UK called a runaway hit.

I love the confidence Kai Collective sparks. Every piece, whether a stand‑out dress or a crisp co‑ord, feels intentional and second-to-none.  This brand started with just 10 items and a £8K loan from founder Fisayo Longe’s mum. Powered by Fisayo’s social media savvy and sharp eye for design, the brand has since grown into a global powerhouse, racking up over £6 million in revenue to date.

I want Women to never accept limitations or stereotypes from anybody – to realise how powerful they are.

Launched by Damilola Onosowobo Marcus and Morenike Olusanya, Bawsty is made for fuller-busted women craving stylish support. With branded tagline “This model is/not wearing a bra,” the brand is known for curve-celebrating dresses and sell-out drops.

I just love that there’s a brand focused on busty women. It can be very hard to find outfits that are flattering on our boobs and still hug or hold our silhouette the way they’re supposed to. Too often, we have to compromise on our style or comfort because of this. When you create outfits with bigger-boobed women in mind, these little things are thought of, and it can make a big difference in shopping and finding the right fit. “ is a love letter to all curves and cup sizes alike.”
