Work Experience

Lylie's Design (Owner)

2018 - 2025

My journey into tailoring began in June 2015 when I started a 2yr 6month apprenticeship at a fashion house known for its authentic Igbo blouses, bridal wears, kiddies ball gown and all kinds of female couture dresses. During this time, I gained hands on experience in traditional garment construction, fabric handling, and finishing techniques. After completing my apprenticeship in December 2017, I began sewing commercially, creating custom pieces for clients. Driven by a passion to grow and adapt within the evolving fashion industry, I enrolled in a 3-month course at a fashion school, where I honed my skills in pattern drafting and fashion illustration broadening my technical understanding and design capabilities.
