Leilani Lawani
Africa is a wonderland of opportunities, resources and growing possibilities. Often times, few innovators and creators tap into these resources and nurture them into beautiful works of art, solutions to problems, and sources of income. One of these innovators is Leilani Lawani.
Leilani Lawani is the Creative backbone and entrepreneur behind the brand “Koélé”. Seeing beyond geographical and cultural restraints, Leilani takes her love for fashion and Africa and combines them into quality luxury items, trading within and beyond the shores of Africa.
The brand emanates from the dynamism and richness of colour, prints and textures of the African community; holding quality and finesse as its critical success factors. Koélé firmly seeks to affect the general bias that African and particularly Nigerian products, are of inferior quality or class.
