With Deola and Teni Sagoe, family is the beginning and the end — bonded by faith, music, and a shared passion for the art and business of fashion.
In our Holiday Issue, we step inside the glass-walled building in Lagos that houses the iconic DEOLA, CLAN, and more to uncover the inspiring story of Nigeria’s IT family of fashion. From their grandmother’s weaving legacy to Deola Sagoe’s creative brilliance and her daughters, Teni modern vision, this family blends tradition, innovation, and love into everything they create.
For the Sagoe women, fashion is more than garments — it’s about empowering women with confidence, grace, and self-worth, all while staying grounded in accountability and care for one another.
