Obioma Fashion is a fashion company that mixes African fashion with western fashion. The clothes are designed in America, made in Nigeria and available worldwide. The brand was birthed March 2016 in DC with a design team both in Nigeria and Chicago. Obioma translates to an Igbo tailor which was coined after the Biafran War. Igbo people who lost the war and were impoverished made a living by carrying sewing machines on their heads, walking about mending clothes. From this humble beginning, they became multi-millionaire businessmen. They were called the Obioma. The designer and Howard Alumni Emeka Anyadiegwu has chosen to honor an Obioma on his brand logo and create distinct fashion to help promote African culture in a positive way while creating jobs in his home country.
