I started my line because … My interest in fashion started while I was in university. Fashion design was my escape back then and it grew into my passion. After graduation, I knew I had to put all my fears behind me and launch Fablane by Derin.

 

The Fablane woman is young, spirited and confident!

Her favourite influencers to  work with …

‘I love working with both Ini Dima – Okojie and Mimi Onalaja. They are bold with their choices, risk takers and we have an amazing understanding of each other.’

Who is on her celebrity wishlist?
‘It would be a dream come true to work with Rita Dominic; she exudes a certain grace that I’m drawn to and wears pieces with so much confidence.’

Who is the Fablane By Derin woman?
The Fablane woman is young, spirited and confident! She isn’t afraid to express herself through her dressing and doesn’t mind being the center of attention.

I get my style inspiration from …
 any and everything. When I’m not working, I’m always almost absent minded because I’m thinking of how to merge so many ideas into one. Most of all, I gain inspiration from the bodies of women – it’s so beautiful how we are all shaped differently. I always try to create pieces that can suit or be modified to suit all body types.

We produce versatile pieces that can be styled in so many different ways.

How would you describe your label?
Fablane by Derin is fun and unique! We produce versatile pieces that can be styled in so many different ways. Our customers rock our pieces years after and affirm that they still turn heads.
What do you believe should be the foundation of every woman’s wardrobe?
Comfortable and timeless pieces
