First ever creation?
Tikovah Clothing: This brings back memories. My first ever creation was back in secondary school I made a blouse with red and white check material and hemmed the ends with red bias – I feel a lot of joy remembering this and I still love this creation. I loved every bit of that blouse that i had to make a red skirt to match it. I love prints and cuts, this inspired my handmade set. I wanted school uniforms to adopt more styles so I made my own style through those fabrics.

Any Challenges?
Tikovah Clothing: It’s Africa! Nigeria to be precise, you know the struggle and the growth in our country. We keep trying to conquer and work on some things and it has been tough for example getting good skilled manpower hasn’t easy and even when found its more expensive and increases cost of production.

Tell us about the collection you intend to showcase on AFWN runway
Tikovah Clothing:  The collection that I will be showcasing at the African Fashion week Nigeria is inspired by EVOLUTION , this is seen in the designs, how we are able to own our designs and styles, have beautiful variation of them. This shows that we have a continuous driving force to evolve to a better version of ourselves. Like the brand slogan says “the code to style” we cannot keep styling if we do not have new ideas and style; this is achieved through profiling and particular selection of good textured fabrics.
