In a saturated fashion market, true differentiation comes from a

distinct point of view. Erika Dalya Massaquoi is a designer, curator, educator, and

creative force behind OULA. Joining the show this week, Erika discusses how her

holistic understanding of culture and consumer behavior has shaped her brand’s

signature blending of African wax print textiles with classic fashion silhouettes. This

conversation is a deep dive into the realities of scaling an independent label, the true

meaning of individual style, and the intentional future of her brand world.
