A Modern Learning Environment: Spacious studios at 11 Dipo Abe Street, Ojodu-Berger.
Mentorship: We don't just teach you; we guide you until your brand is standing.
Financial Independence: A skill that inflation cannot take away.
At our Ojodu Berger studio, we don’t just sew clothes; we create statements. Every piece is a blend of cultural heritage and modern aesthetics, crafted to ensure you stand out in the vibrant Lagos fashion scene.
Good News?
At Flashybabs Fashion Academy, we believe that talent is everywhere, but opportunity is rare. Whether you are looking for your first career path or a total life reset, our doors in Ojodu Berger are open to these 8 types of people:
You just finished your WAEC/NECO and don’t want to stay idle while waiting for admission. Instead of “waiting for a result,” you can gain a professional skill that ensures you’ll never be broke on campus or in life.
Life didn’t go as planned, but that doesn’t mean your success story is over. We offer a sustainable, high-income career path that doesn’t require a university degree to thrive. If you have the passion, we have the blueprint to turn you into a professional designer.
You have plans to relocate to the UK, Canada, or the USA. A skilled tailor or pattern drafter earns in high-currency overseas. We train you to international standards so your handiwork can compete anywhere in the world.
You aren’t just here to sew; you want to own a brand. You want to see your label on the runways of Lagos Fashion Week. We teach you the Business of Fashion, from branding to luxury retail management.
You are currently in a 9-to-5 that doesn’t fulfill you (or pay enough). You want to transition into the creative industry with a structured, professional curriculum that respects your time and ambition.
You love your current job but need an extra stream of income. Our flexible weekend classes allow you to master bespoke tailoring so you can serve your own clients and earn extra Naira on the side.
You already know how to sew, but your finishing is “local.” You want to learn Professional Pattern Drafting to achieve that “Ready-to-Wear” boutique finish that allows you to charge premium prices.
Whether you are a housewife or a new mum, you want a skill that allows you to work from the comfort of your home. Fashion design offers the perfect balance of flexibility and financial independence.
My name is Shade Babs, the founder and creative director of Flashybabs Designs
In the days where I struggled a lot with clothe design and getting my styles to look like the ones I saw in magazines.
Absolutely. Many of our students are practicing tailors who want to upgrade from “local” methods to international standards. You will master advanced Precision Pattern Drafting, high-end garment finishing, and luxury branding—skills that allow you to move from charging thousands to charging hundreds of thousands for a single piece.
Beyond sewing, we provide a holistic fashion education. You can expect modules on Fashion Illustration, fabric selection, color theory, and the Business of Fashion. We also cover digital marketing and luxury retail management to ensure you know how to find and keep high-paying clients.
The only prerequisite is your passion and a willingness to learn. Whether you are a fresh secondary school graduate or a professional looking for a career change, our curriculum starts from the basics and scales up to masterclass levels. No prior sewing experience is required for our foundation courses.
Yes. Every student receives our curated Flashybabs Training Toolkit, which includes drafting manuals, measurement charts, and access to our library of design templates. You will also get a list of trusted fabric and equipment suppliers across Lagos and Ogun State to help you start your own studio.
Yes! We believe in hands-on mentorship. Whether you are in our physical studio in Ojodu Berger or taking our online/hybrid tracks, there are dedicated weekly sessions where you can ask questions, get corrections on your stitches, and receive direct feedback from our Creative Director.
Once you join Flashybabs, you are part of our family. We offer post-training mentorship and alumni support. Many of our former students still visit the academy for advice on complex projects or business scaling. Our doors at 11 Dipo Abe Street are always open to our graduates.
Our “Business of Fashion” module is specifically designed for this. We teach you how to:
Rebrand: Move from a “tailoring shop” to a “Fashion House.”
Standardize: Create a Ready-to-Wear line with consistent sizing.
Scale: Set up a production line that runs even when you aren’t behind the machine. If you are starting fresh, we provide the roadmap to launch your brand from scratch with a professional identity.
Don’t let doubt stop your dreams. Join over 295 students who have redefined their lives through fashion.
