ADANNA Returns Home to Shape the Future of Nigerian Couture

There’s always been a quiet confidence to the way ADANNA approaches fashion. Shaped
by art and creativity but with a steady commitment to pieces that last, both in tailoring and in
memory. For years, the brand has been a whisper among those who know, worn by women
who value clothing as more than just an outfit, but as a statement of presence and of their
true self.

Founded by Adanna Ukabi herself, the brand has always moved on its own clock; each
piece carefully considered and every move deliberate. She grew up in the U.S, with years in
New York that shaped her eye for detail. Adanna spent her time meeting creative makers,
exploring fabric shops, and learning the value of art & craft — fueling a deep-seated drive to
create and bring her own brand to life.

Now, ADANNA is setting its sights back home, with a clear purpose and direction for the
brand’s next chapter. From a soon-to-be-completed studio in Abeokuta, the brand is laying
the groundwork to grow its presence in Nigeria’s fashion and creative scene. The space is
being built as more than a production or manufacturing house; it’s intended to be a place
where couture is treated as art, and every piece, product, or image is shaped with the
meticulous attention to detail that defines the brand. Here, creation, shoots, stocking, and
fulfillment will live side by side — a complete ecosystem that keeps the brand’s rhythm under
one roof. With a growing team and a structure built for the long term, the studio will not only
serve the full arc of ADANNA’s work but could, in time, become a hub that supports the wider
creative industry in Abeokuta.

This next chapter signals a new pace for the brand. With an expanded team and a space
dedicated to bringing ideas to life, ADANNA is setting the stage for future collections, drops,
collaborations that feel deeply rooted in Nigerian, yet globally attuned. It’s couture with an
avant-garde edge and a quiet chic, the kind that speaks long after you’ve left the room
