Eyato sponsors “Fashion Designer of The Year” Award at Women4Africa 2014

Atiti Sosimi launched the exclusive accessories label Eyato in January 2013 after years of designing and creating shoes, handbags and coats for herself and close friends.  Eyato means “Distinct from any other, Different, or to stand out” in Yoruba (a South-Western Nigerian language) and Eyato certainly succeeds in doing this with its range of sophisticated and unique pieces.  All pieces are handmade and made to measure for all clients.

Atiti’s passion for style and fashion is translated in her exclusive designs which are aimed at women aged 40 and beyond. Eyato is proud to be sponsoring the “Fashion Designer of The Year” Award, encouraging fashion designers of African Descent to become major influencers in the international fashion arena.

The ‘Women4africa’ Awards was birthed from a 20-year desire and passion for seeing African women honoured and appreciated in a celebratory way. Beyond advocating on their behalf and empowering them to fight for social justice and gender equality it is equally important to highlight that African women are also ‘key agents of positive change’ in their communities and it is for this reason that Eyato is proud to be a sponsor of this prestigious event which takes place on May 10th at the Kensington Town Hall.
