In this episode of Breaking Things Down with Seyi Banigbe, we dive into the dynamic world of Nigerian fashion with Ikechukwu Urum, fashion stylist, model manager, and co-founder of Jabari Model Management. From discovering models on the streets of Lagos to sending them to the world's biggest runways in Paris, Milan, London, and New York, Ikechukwu shares his inspiring journey and candid insights into the industry.


Discover the challenges faced by Nigerian designers, stylists, makeup artists, photographers, and other professionals who make up the backbone of the fashion ecosystem. Ikechukwu opens up about the pressures of last-minute styling, his father's skepticism about fashion as a \"serious business,\" and the turning point when he earned his father's respect—working at Paris Fashion Week in 2023.


We also explore the do’s and don’ts of influencer marketing, why resilience is key to thriving in this competitive space, and the importance of having quality work to back up your online presence.


Whether you’re a fashion enthusiast, aspiring stylist, or someone curious about the business of fashion in Nigeria, this episode is packed with insights and inspiration.
