| TÓTÉ Signature Ankara and Leather Box Bag |
I picked a few bags to show you from my debut collection just so you have a closer look at the bags and see how they have been lovingly made in our Lagos Studio. Honest there are no tricks here.What you see is what you get. The bags are excellently made. If it doesn't reach our very strict standards it doesn't leave the studio and best of all TÓTÉ bags shown here and on the TÓTÉ website are proudly made in Nigeria.. Go! Naija...LOL!
So, once again peeps, it is my singular pleasure to re-introduce you to "The Ankara-nista by TÓTÉ Collections designed by Yours truly, Bola Obileye..

OK, so now that this is my 9-5 job expect the hard sell, LOL!
TÓTÉ handbags are currently only available by calling me (stockists wanted..) and as most of my bags are made in very limited quantities, I may have to specially make up your bag if you place an order.Which should take no longer than a week to 2 weeks, that said we hold stock of certain items so please feel free to ask
It's official TÓTÉ is ready to rock and roll...!!!
Hope you like....

ReplyDeleteWOW!!!!! They look very nice!!! I want the first one and the tiwa savage one too. lol. good job hun! :)
ReplyDeleteI want some, but I'm all the way in Canada. How do I get them?
ReplyDeleteCan we have the prices pleeaaaase, I hate that 99 percent of Naija designers never ever put up their prices.
ReplyDeleteThanks
Jesus, i don't like ankara, however, these blew me away. The Tiwa Savage bag is to die for.....
ReplyDeletePrices please. Anon 7.33pm, touche!
Beautiful models and concept.
Lovely bags. I like that your bags are different and not all made with ankara material (not that i have anything against ankara!). Are they only available in Nigeria
ReplyDeleteGorgeous. Very elegant and classy. The question is do you ship to the US????
ReplyDeleteDo you ship to Canada? Merci
ReplyDeleteWow! Thank you all so very much for your kind comments. What more motivation can a girl ask for? I appreciate you taking time out to drop a line.."Ese mo dupe"
ReplyDeleteAnswers to some questions raised;
I'm currently speaking with a shipping partner for shipping to USA, Canada and beyond so should you wish to have your bags shipped out to you please email me and I can get your bags sent to you..hopefully DHL Nigeria won't be too pricey otherwise, I will seek an alternative arrangement.
Re: Pricelist; The tricky business about producing in Nigeria is that, materials are always limited in supply, I tend to use 100% Italian leathers and my current supplier brings in the very best but once its gone, its gone and its back to the drawing board. This in itself makes it difficult to work with a fixed price list as often times design and materials may change due to stock issues. I love the new gold foil Ankara which I have been playing with a lot but even that is not produced in Nigeria and although I buy so much at a time, prices of goods in Nigeria are so volatile that you could shoot yourself in the foot when you pre-price before production.
I'm thinking of the best way round this issue however for bags that are currently available off the shelf I will be happy to send you prices. Please kindly drop me an email at: o_obileye@yahoo.com
So honestly on behalf of Naija Designers please understand that the problem with pricelists is that in Naija there are too many 'unkown' factors...
Many thanks once again. You guys rock!
As with everything you do this bags are excellent, classy and wow. Well done my darling expect my order soon. Tito Gbadamosi
