ABOUT THE OMOWUNMI READY TO WEAR BRAND

The Omowunmi label was created from a desire to create a fresh urban persona for a woman with a social lifestyle. The founder wanted to create a brand because of her thirst for beautiful things that were trendy and depicted a sociable woman. Printed fabrics with bold colours, 3D designed petals, structural pieces and simplistic fine lines is what the Omowunmi label is about.  This is a Nigerian-based women’s clothing label that incorporates vibrant, colourful and urban designs on high quality fabrics to create unique apparel.

This ready to wear brand targets women between ages 20 to 40. A range of the brand is called the “MOMA range” which includes elegant Caftans for women who love the one piece, well-embroidered rich, effortlessly chic and elegant look. Another range is the OMA, which forms her initials and signifies a woman of class who likes to express herself in the simplest form.

Omowunmi is a label that depicts a woman personifying freedom, elegance and class. It is for the woman with a social lifestyle, encompassing an outfit for work, black-tie, cocktail, party wear, day wears and even linen beach wear. An Omowunmi woman has a certain lifestyle; she’s social yet reserved, trendy yet effortlessly chic. She reflects a girl next door who embodies the Celebrity Culture.
