Tell
me about your brand SWEETFOLA Couture what makes it unique.
My brand is unique from others because we specialized on
women’s wear luxurious made couture clothes and online boutique clothing.
Sweetfola Couture represents the entire strong woman. Women
who never give up on their dreams, confident and achiever, the one that stood
in the storm and the wind did not blown her away and also the one who walks in
purpose that doesn’t have to chase people or opportunities, Here is to strong
women, may we know them, may we be them and may we raise them.
What made you set it up in 2016?
It has been a long time ambition to be a successful fashion
designer, that’s why I established my brand in 2016 immediately after my
Graduation.
Secondly, My highly commended debut collection STRONG WOMEN
bright red and fuchsia floor sweeping gowns that was quickly attracted the
attention of the fashion industry after my collection was showcased on the
Runway at London Graduation Fashion Week 2016 and my ready to wear Spring
Summer 2017 collection was showcased in British Vogue Magazine. My collection
was rated the most elegant and well-tailored collection of the week
What
has kept you going since 2016?
First of all grace of God has been my strength, Focus and
looking at the bigger pictures. Keeping a small business afloat in challenging
times can be difficult, but extra attention to details can help ensure that a
business survives. Because every small business is different, and each carries
its own risks and rewards, there is no set playbook to follow for survival.
