About Corset
Every great design needs structure.
What is Corset?
Corset is a fashion business operating system built specifically for Nigerian and African fashion designers. It is the first platform of its kind built from Lagos, for the African market.
Corset provides fashion designers with tools to manage clients and their measurements, track orders through every stage, monitor payments and expenses, present their finished work professionally, and connect with a community of fellow designers and international buyers.
Why we built it
Nigeria's fashion industry is worth $4.7 billion. Africa's fashion market has the potential to reach $50 billion. Yet most African fashion designers run their businesses from WhatsApp messages and notebooks they cannot find.
Every tool that existed was built for tailoring shops in India or garment factories in China. Nothing was built for the Ankara dress designer in Ajah or the Agbada specialist in Kano. Corset is that tool. Built from scratch. In Lagos. For Africa.
