Inside a Nigerian Designer’s Global Fashion Journey ft Kanyinsola Onalaja | Ep 85

تفصیل

Ciara, Kelly Rowland and Jennifer Hudson have all worn her designs. But what does it take to build a brand that reaches women on global stages while staying anchored in who you are? In this week’s episode, we sit down with fashion designer and creative director Kanyinsola Onalaja, a Nigerian creative whose bold, heritage-rooted work is redefining modern luxury. From growing up between Lagos, London and Rome to finding her voice in a competitive industry, Kanyinsola shares the courage, craft and clarity behind her rise. We explore identity, resilience and what it looks like to create from a place of conviction rather than striving. Her story is a reminder that beautiful things can grow from unexpected seasons and that staying true to your calling matters more than following the crowd. What if the version of you that steps into your creativity is the most grounded and confident one yet?
