So dress daring and arrive on time’’ FAB founder Familusi Akin Babajide, a well-known bespoke suit designer and media entrepreneur said. Born January 25, 1978 and raised in Lagos, Familusi Akin Babajide (FAB) is toeing the line of his grandfather who was a tailor and passed away a few weeks before he was born.
In 2001 at the age of 23, he discovered his interest in making his own clothes, having traded in clothing and accessories for a few years. Mostly self-taught, the young designer used his background in the sciences to do research in fabrics.
This has inspired winning pieces, with the first shirt he ever produced being mistaken for a Jermyn Street product. T
he applause and exclamations that came from clients, friends and family, gave birth to the Exclamation Couture brand that has focused on setting the standards for the tailoring of shirts and suits in Africa.
The event is produced by FAB Magazine, and supported by Vlisco, Trace TV, Beat FM, Pattaya Oriental, Zapphaire Events and Barcadi.
