Nigerian designers — Tolu Coker, Priya Ahluwalia and Torishéju Dumi are the inspiring cover girls for the new British Vogue. For this trio, sustainability goes beyond a buzzword, it is the foundation upon which they have built their businesses.
In this January 2024 issue of British Vogue, Julia Hobbs meets these three (3) prodigious designers of Nigerian descent – with three distinct styles – who are aligned on one shared purpose. Julia is the Acting European Fashion Features Director & Senior Fashion Projects Editor at British Vogue. On the cover, the brilliant ladies are rocking no-makeup makeup looks, each with her own unique hairstyle. See below:

Earlier in September, 2023 designer Tolu Coker staged her debut runway show — a sensual, tailoring-inflected exploration of Yoruba culture. Now on this January 2024 issue of British Vogue, she reveals that it was just the beginning.
Early on, I conditioned myself that my definition of success is about slow, steady growth and longevity.
Coker is joined by Torisheju, whose SS24 collection closed Paris Fashion Week, and Priya Ahluwalia, who has long emphasised that sustainability isn’t “just about the yarn you choose”, but driving social and environmental change, too.
