Olamide Adewunmi-Osinaike, known for her creative genius, serves as the Creative Director and Entrepreneur behind Lammy Gold Stitches. With a background in Banking and Finance from The Lagos State University, she has stitched together a remarkable journey in the world of fashion and entrepreneurship.
She started by buying shirts from Lagos Island and selling to corporate customers. She remembers buying female shirts from ‘David Wej’ at the store opposite the Silverbird Galleria and was fortunate to have met Mr Adedayo Eweje, who gave her a good discount because she was reselling. This led her to crafting out shirts, 2pc sets, and diverse designs using African prints.
What began as a trade was soon transformed into a thriving business with customers spanning both home and abroad. In March 2019, Lammy Gold Stitches achieved official recognition as a registered entity with the CAC, marking a significant milestone in its growth.
Olamide’s life journey has been deeply rooted in her home city. From her primary to tertiary education, she has been a proud product of Lagos, a place that continues to influence her creative endeavours.
Olamide’s inspiration for pursuing a career in fashion can be traced back to her childhood. She fondly remembers being captivated by “Video Fashion,” a program on NTA 2 channel 5. This early fascination with fashion ignited a passion that would eventually lead her to establish Lammy Gold Stitches.
In the ever-evolving world of fashion and entrepreneurship, challenges are inevitable. While Olamide has faced her fair share, she remains resilient and determined to overcome them as she continues to build her brand.
Her greatest accomplishment lies in her ability to weave threads of creativity and entrepreneurship seamlessly. She finds fulfilment in creating fashion pieces that resonate with her customers and bring joy to their lives. In her words, “At Lammy Gold Stitches, we thread dreams into reality through fashion.”
For aspiring professionals in the fashion industry, Olamide offers sage advice: “A stitch in time saves nine. Don’t wait till later, do it now.” This philosophy of taking proactive steps echoes her own journey of transforming a passion into a successful business.
Olamide’s story is a testament to the power of passion, creativity, and entrepreneurship. “Creativity knows no boundaries, and neither does fashion,” Olamide states. Through Lammy Gold Stitches, she continues to leave a mark in the world of fashion, one stitch at a time.
