Known for her genre-bending music, striking photography, and now, her groundbreaking sustainable fashion label, Wavy is the embodiment of a chameleon within the Alté movement, where authenticity reigns supreme, and every project is a direct extension of her vibrant identity.
Her journey started in the world of fashion, where she cut her teeth as a designer before diving into visual media. But it was in 2017 that Wavy made her biggest splash yet, dropping her debut single “H.I.G.H” (Her in Greater Heights) and catching the attention of none other than Skepta. That same year, she was invited to open for Skepta’s Boy Better Know crew at the Homecoming Africa concert in Lagos—a stage she shared with heavyweights like J Hus, Wizkid, and Davido. That moment marked the beginning of a musical career that refuses to be boxed in, just like the artist herself.
But Wavy isn’t just about making hits; she’s about making statements.
As the official photographer for Nigerian hip-hop titan Olamide, her lens captures the pulse of a culture that’s both raw and refined. Whether she’s behind the camera or in front of the mic, Wavy is always in her element, bringing an unapologetically quirky and authentic style to everything she touches.
In 2021, Wavy added another layer to her already multifaceted career by launching PIÈCE ET PATCH, a sustainable streetwear brand that breathes new life into thrifted denim and deadstock fabrics. With leather and denim as her canvas, Wavy crafts standout pieces that are as bold as they are eco-conscious.
Each item in the collection is a testament to her commitment to reducing the carbon footprint and educating the youth on the importance of recycling. It’s streetwear with a purpose—uncompromising in its message and its design.
The Alté aesthetic is woven into every thread of PIÈCE ET PATCH, a reflection of Wavy’s love for authenticity and her desire to disrupt the norm. Just like her music, her fashion is a form of self-expression that challenges the status quo. Wavy the Creator isn’t just participating in the culture; she’s creating it, one riff, one shot, and one stitch at a time.
