On a trip back home to Nigeria, 'Lola' took $1,000 and produced as many outfits as she could. She brought them back with her to the US and began selling them at a weekend flea market.
Her clothing not only is a thriving business, but helps boost a sense of identity for her African-American customers – in a small way, helping combat a legacy of slavery.
She's super charming, and her fun selfie videos have given a big boost to her social media channel, and her business.
Her goal? Ankara fabric will be like Levi's. Nobody even thinks about it... everyone is just wearing it!
