Emerging Designer – Tonsin Sarayi

 Nigerian born, Tsarayi had an unconventional start in her career working in Accounting after she graduated with a 1st class degree in Accounting and Finance. After realising quickly that this was not the career she had envisioned, she made the move from London to Birmingham after securing a scholarship to study MSc Project Management at Birmingham City University.

However after a trip to Africa, her career plans changed yet again and it was clear that fashion was the right path for her. “I was blown away by the potential and talent of those in the fashion industry in Nigeria and which has ignited my passion for a career in fashion”.

Inspired by designers such as Wale Adeyemi, Ozwald Boateng, Bestow Elan, Vivienne Westwood and Stella McCartney, Tsarayi’s ultimate goal is to have her African inspired clothing line in boutiques and top high street stores.
