The LadyMaker at 10: Celebrating a decade of craft, culture and timeless femininity
On November 2, 2025, The LadyMaker, one of Nigeria’s most respected heritage fashion brands, will celebrate its tenth anniversary with Graffiti, an evening of legacy, craftsmanship and reflection at VICI, Lagos.
The milestone celebration marks a decade of design excellence rooted in African tradition, with The Macallan joining as the official drinks partner for the event.
Founded by Ifeyinwa Azubike in 2015, The LadyMaker was built on a vision to merge Nigerian textile heritage with global standards of refinement. What began as a quiet pursuit of craft has evolved into one of the country’s most distinguished fashion houses, known for its elegant silhouettes, deliberate construction and commitment to preserving cultural artistry.
Over the years, The LadyMaker has explored and expanded its aesthetic vocabulary through collections that balance heritage and innovation.
From Indigo with its deep-dyed elegance, to Ceramica which fused hand-woven
aso-oke and ceramic-inspired motifs, and the acclaimed Waste to Wonder
collection made entirely from production off-cuts, each body of work reinforces
the brand’s devotion to craftsmanship, sustainability and design integrity.
The upcoming anniversary showcase, Graffiti, draws inspiration from the expressive permanence of street art. The event will debut a new anniversary collection, offering a glimpse into the brand’s next decade, one that continues to celebrate femininity through structure, texture and storytelling.
Designed for women who value meaning as much as beauty, the collection embodies the quiet confidence that has defined The LadyMaker for ten years.
As guests raise glasses of The Macallan Classic Cut in celebration, Graffiti will stand as both tribute and transition, honouring the journey so far while setting the tone for what is to come.
In 10 years, The LadyMaker has proven that African luxury requires no translation. Built by hand, guided by heritage and sustained through excellence, it continues to champion a vision of fashion that is both timeless and unmistakably Nigerian.
