Last season’s winners Team Elan, have been busy making waves since winning the maiden edition of the competition. The fashion ensemble which boasts the talents of Temitayo Nathan and Toyin Oyeneye amongst others, exhibited their designs at the prestigious Lagos Fashion & Design Week last November where they shared the same runway with industry heavyweights such as Lanre Da Silva, Maki Oh and the Okunoren Twins.

Temitayo Nathan was then chosen by the Lagos Fashion and Design Week to feature at the International Fashion Showcase at the London Fashion Week in February 2015 alongside Grey, Iamisigo, Kenneth Ize and Orange Culture, and they emerged winners at the showcase.

Since winning the Fayrouz L’Original Expressions competition and scooping the $20,000 prize, Team Elan’s fashion and design careers have taken off impressively.

The competition is an offshoot of the Be Original campaign launched by Fayrouz.
