Hello fashion lovers 😁. I’ve got another exciting set of Nigerian brands for you. These two brands are favourites of Nigerian socialites and celebrities. Both brands are also known for creating chic, feminine and edgy styles.
Let’s check them out…
TUBO
Tubo is an exciting woman’s wear brand based in Lagos Nigeria. The brand is popular for redesigning the traditional African bridal attires, chic pret a porte clothing that stands out, and distinctive haute couture pieces with amazing silhouettes that bring out the uniqueness of every woman.
The brain behind Tubo is the beautiful Sandrah Tubobereni. Tubobereni walked away from a flourishing career in Business Development and Finance and pursued her passion by starting her Fashion brand in November 2014.
Sandrah Tubobereni built TUBO organically from her bedroom in Dolphin Estate, Lagos, with very little to no funds to start with, but just a vision and core values that she was dedicated to. A dedication that has paid off as her brand has quickly become a household name in Nigeria. She started with her bridal collection but added the TuboRTW (ready to wear) sometimes in 2019.
Tubobereni has won several awards since her debut in 2014 and has become ‘the designer of choice’ for a lot of young and stylish Nigerian women.
Her creations are sophisticated, fragile and feminine.

Lola Baej
Lola Baej is a Lagos based Contemporary women’s label. The brand is known for detailed, bold, and sophisticated pieces that capture a woman’s feminity, strength and confidence.
The creative director is the talented Lola Agbaje. In 2014, Lola made the bold decision to leave a career in IT as a soft tester to follow her passion and Lola Baej was born.
Lola Baej pieces are made to order and are focused on ensuring that the classy woman flaunts the edgy side of style. In an interview with Allure Magazine, Lola had this to say of her creations.” I am thinking of a contemporary woman. I am thinking of strenuous feminism, individuality, edginess and a fashion-forward woman’.
Runway to redcarpet
These 2 brands are patronised by Young Nigeria celebrities, socialites and fashion influencers. Here are some of them.
