This is Private Culture - Private conversations about all things Culture. 


In this episode of Private Culture, host Ingrid Paskell is still in Lagos, Nigeria. She sits down with Nigerian Fashion Lawyer and founder of Fashion Law Institute Africa, Bernice Asein.

Recording in Idozi Collective - a fashion boutique in Lagos - focusing on showcasing Nigerian designers who work locally and sustainably, upcycling materials and reshaping traditional wear. They explore and discuss what the Nigerian fashion industry is like; from a legal perspective, the intersection between creatives and business ; how important it is to have a legal structure protecting the flow of creative industries. 


This conversation offers a behind-the-scenes peek into the world of Nigerian fashion law - an area that is highly underestimated and unrecognised. 

This is an in-depth conversation, with a lot of passion, as both host and guest are into fashion.

Bernice generously shares from her unique perspective; the struggles of being a business owner and founder of a pan-africans institute aiming to create lasting change for an entire continent. 


The conversation dances between topics such as; being a pioneer, systemic industry change, love of fashion and sustainability, the world of law and protecting African traditions through education. 

Bernice is based in Lagos, Nigeria, but travels between multiple African countries for Fashion Law Institute of Africa.
