Operating in Lagos with a local supply chain, Ola Reay explores with a small, closely knit team. It is important that with each collection that is designed, a story is told. It has to speak to something deeper. Hence, we create with an ethical and artistic approach, not just a piece of clothing but an experience for the human in Ola Reay. Our vision is to become a global destination for stand-out hand embellished clothing that celebrates the modern day man with the quest to living a life of affluence and fufillment. A vision fuelled to consistently foster traditional techniques, patterns and silhouttes, this we believe is a sustainable approach to preserving age-old traditional skills so they do not fade away from history whilst adding both social and economic value to us-the maker, the artisans, the consumer and the community.
