Tolumi The Fashion People
The TFP officially launched in 2008 as a ready-to-wear label. In 2011, the TFP store was launched in Ibadan, and also
was the fashion school. The vision behind the name Tolumi, The Fashion People is that of a team of people , rather
than
just the head designer ,gets the credit for the wonderful pieces. The team works hand in hand to give the best service
to our clients. The brand has been able to carve for itself a place in the fast-growing Nigerian fashion industry. The
TFP label is for the stylish and young at heart woman. She is always a show- stopper. Every TFP piece tells a story
and
is uniquely made and finished.
Tolumi Abiola, the creative designer and head fashion teacher at TFP is one who has been working in fashion since
1997.
Although young, she started her career very early. Like she says ‘I was born to be a fashionista’. One of the most
striking aspects of her story into fashion is that she is self-trained.
A trained registered and accredited dietician, she studied human nutrition and dietetics at the university of
agriculture, Abeokuta and also went ahead to have her M.Sc. in public health human nutrition at the university of
Ibadan. Having been opportune to practice dietetics at the prestigious teaching hospital of the Obafemi Awolowo
University, she says, “I love dietetics. I care deeply about people, but fashion is my passion, it’s who I was meant
to
be’.
