Nigerian fashion designer Victoria James, professionally known as Veekee James, has carved a niche for herself as one of the most sought-after brands in the continent.
Beyond making resplendent dresses for her local clients, she has been able to penetrate the international market. From her ability to bring needle, thread, and other creatives together to design masterpieces, one can literally brag about her gifted hands.
Born on June 9, 1995, Veekee James has built her brand from being a CEO who is always on the ground to supervise the making of her breathtaking outfits to being a boss whose staff can confidently work in her absence.
The creative designer is not just focused on making clothes, she is also good at cooking, and she is an interesting content creator.
Despite her hardwork and consistency in the game, she often faces criticisms, especially in her choice to put out some content about her love life. Nevertheless, the expectant mother is unfazed as she continues to share how much she adores her husband Femi Atere.
She might have been born into an average home in Ajegunle, Lagos, where her mother labored to raise her and her siblings after their dad passed, but she didn’t remain in that position. Focus, hardwork, and determination were her watchwords.
Today, many people celebrate Veekee James and several brands are proud to associate and collaborate with her. Among those she has made classy dresses for are Funke Akindele, Osas Ighodaro, Uche Montana, Toke Makinwa, Sharon Ooja, and Priscilla Ojo.
With her constant faith in God, she believes she hasn’t started yet. She is the definition of preparation meets opportunities, a story of resilience, and a proof that the gift of men makes room for them.
