Bespoke tailor Sir Baba Jagne is the secret weapon behind many of the well tailored looks we’ve seen on Cardi B, Normani, Naomi Campbell, Kelly Rowland, and Monica. His attention to detail and ability to tailor, deconstruct, and reconstruct virtually anything makes him the go-to for stars who truly want to shine.
The Gambian designer has fashion in his blood. He says, “I was born into it. My dad was a tailor and my mom was a seamstress. I learned how to walk and crawl in the atelier.” He perfected his craft over the years, eventually working in the Atelier of a 5 star hotel in Gambia. He said, “People would bring in Versace suits, and ask me to remake it in African fabric. I was able to deconstruct and reconstruct, and that’s where [a lot of my] experience comes from. “
