Our Brand Story
The story of Abaake by eQuip is deeply rooted in the vibrant heart of Ibadan, Nigeria. As young girl, I discovered my love for fashion at her mother’s side. I was captivated by the colours, patterns, and textures of the fabrics my mother worked with, and it was in our living room workshop that I learned the art of fashion design. My mother’s skilled hands and creative spirit inspired me to dream big and to see the beauty in our rich cultural heritage.
From these humble beginnings, I nurtured my passion and honed my skills, driven by a desire to share the exquisite beauty of Afrocentric fashion with the world. Abaake by eQuip was born out of this passion, a testament to the traditions of my homeland and the modern, global vision I hold. Our journey began in the bustling markets of Ibadan, where the local community embraced our designs and fuelled our growth.
Today, Abaake by eQuip stands as a bridge between the traditional and the contemporary, the local and the global. Each piece we create tells a story, blending the rich tapestry of African culture with modern design elements. Our collections are a celebration of identity, pride, and artistic expression, crafted with meticulous attention to detail and an unwavering commitment to quality and sustainability.
