Princess Peaceful Owoghiri comes to you as a muse with an ever flowing aura of creativity and a deep passion for quality, elegance and style.
Her artistic skills were discovered early as a child, though her parents would insist that she studies law which is a professional course. Art was never an option as a career choice for young Miss Peaceful. She was an “A” student in art and design, throughout her years in school and sketching has always been a hobby.
Born in Port Harcourt, Nigeria and originally from Abia state before proceeding to England for further studies and eventually called to Nigerian Bar as a lawyer. After many years in business, as a director in an oil service firm, she resigned to pursue her childhood passion of fashion designing.
“fashion designing for me is a creative outlet for the artistic me”.
