We Left Nigeria to Study Fashion in the UK — Was It Worth It?

In this debut episode of *Fabric of Success*, I sit down with my close friend from fashion school to ask a bold question:

Was it actually worth it?

We share our experiences as Nigerian designers studying in the UK, reflect on what fashion school gave us (and what it didn’t), and compare what it’s like working in both the Nigerian and UK fashion industries.

This episode is real, honest, and made for anyone questioning the value of fashion education in 2025.

🎙 Topics we discuss:

- Is fashion school worth the money?

- UK vs Nigeria: which fashion scene supports creatives better?

- Finding our voice through self-expression

- Why understanding the business side of fashion is important

- Jealousy as a creative
