According to a statement from Olateru-Olagbegi, the show is a direct response to the global attention Nigerian fashion is currently receiving, providing an essential platform to document the industry’s complexities. Each episode features guests who discuss how they started, the significant challenges they face, how they recovered from failures, and how they financed their businesses. The series is committed to giving a voice to all parts of the fashion ecosystem, not just the designers.
"I created The Fashion Roundtable because I wanted a space to have real, honest conversations with the people who are shaping Nigeria's fashion industry," said Gbemi Olateru-Olagbegi, who also co-hosts one of Nigeria’s premier culture talk shows, Off-Air.
"We often only see the finished product, the beautiful outfits, but we rarely hear from the people behind the scenes about the work that goes into the process. Nigerian fashion is getting so much attention globally, and now feels like the perfect time to share these voices and their stories.”
