A bold new name is stepping onto Nigeria’s fashion stage—2006·MMVI, a brand poised to redefine luxury and self-expression through fashion. Founded by creative director Folakemi Obasunloye, the brand will make its official debut on Sunday, April 20, with a high-concept event themed “The Awakening: A 2006 Fashion Experience.”

The launch promises to be more than just a runway show—it’s a curated experience meant to introduce the world of 2006·MMVI through select pieces from its debut collection. The event will welcome fashion influencers, media, and style connoisseurs to witness the brand’s unique fusion of high fashion and deeply personal storytelling.

A Fashion Movement Rooted in Rebirth

At the heart of 2006·MMVI lies a powerful origin story. According to Obasunloye, the brand’s name pays homage to a pivotal year of personal transformation—2006, a moment that sparked not only a life-changing journey but also gave birth to a vision of purpose and power.

2006·MMVI draws its name from a year of deep personal transformation—a moment that birthed not just life, but purpose,” Obasunloye explains. “That same essence now fuels the spirit of every piece created under the MMVI label. At its core, the brand is a tribute to resilience, rebirth, and royalty.

Fashion That Reigns, Not Whispers

The debut collection will showcase a range of styles that blend structured elegance with fluid grace. Obasunloye describes each creation as “a wearable story”—meticulously crafted to evoke strength, presence, and self-empowerment. With bold silhouettes, luxe fabrics, and regal detailing, 2006·MMVI aims to awaken the inner monarch in every wearer.

This collection refuses to whisper. It reigns,” she asserts. “Every stitch, silhouette, and fabric choice is deliberately created to make the wearer feel extraordinary, regal, and fully aligned with their power.

Redefining Nigerian Luxury

Positioning itself as a trailblazer in Nigeria’s high-end fashion space, 2006·MMVI is more than just a fashion label—it’s a movement. One that celebrates individuality, embraces identity, and turns personal triumphs into public statements of style.

With its upcoming debut, 2006·MMVI is set to not only capture attention but spark conversations about the evolving landscape of African luxury fashion. The brand’s mantra is clear: where strength meets style, royalty rises.
