Pleated Gele expert & CEO of Opeke, Yinka Thomas-Ogboja set to exhibit at the Afro-Business Expo UK

Yinka Thomas-Ogboja, CEO of Opeke entered the fashion scene in March with her first ever easy-to-tie, already pleated asake gele. Since inception, Yinka has introduced other innovative concepts for the contemporary African beauty.

Arewa, their interchangeable beads collection allows you to mix and match two or more beads set in only one set.
 Soge headgear was also designed from her “already-pleated-gele” concept for easy tying. Soge allows the fusion of Western and African fashion and is suitable for those who aren't fans of iro and buba but still want that African look to their outfit. They pride in the fact that all their headgears can be tied like a pro in one-minute and this is a promise they have consistently kept. 
With a growing clientele base in Nigeria & diaspora due to the uniqueness & ease of their head gears (geles), Opeke is set to promote Nigerian Fashion at the upcoming Afro-Business Expo in Reading UK on the 15th – 16th of September, 2015.

In addition to these signature pieces, they make regular geles, asake-ebi, and soge-ebi. Opeke also creates unique outfits for brides-to-be, gele and ipele collections for women of luxury and style using crystal embellishments among others. The good news is that you can pack all your geles to them for customization to any of their signature pieces or buy from their collection.

Visit their website from anywhere around the world and have your geles delivered to your doorstep. For more of their pleated gele designs and tutorials visit their YouTube page or website.
