Tayo( Fashion designer)

Known as one of the world's most admired destinations, Rodeo Drive conjures up images of money, movies, moguls and mega shopping boutiques. Thembi met up with a designer making headlines on Rodeo Drive. Growing up in Nigeria and the UK, Tayo’s knowledge of style came from his father who taught him that ‘appearance makes perception’. Fashion has become an art and a way to identify and express oneself. Tayo has brought in a more relaxed, yet slimmer and fitted profile to his garments, providing a more modern silhouette. Watch out for this trendsetter.
