Esar Studios
I explore fashion, visual storytelling, community projects, and philosophical ideas through intentional design and collaboration.
Thoughtful. Reflective. Purpose-driven.
MY PRACTICE
I’m Rofiat Showunmi, - designer, creative, and thinker - using Esar Studios as a space to explore form, ideas, and community through creative work.
Esar Studios is my creative practice. I work at the intersection of fashion, visual storytelling, community projects, and reflective writing. My work is shaped by curiosity, cultural grounding, and intentional process - whether I’m designing garments, planning collaborative shoots, or developing community-centered initiatives.
I value process as much as outcome. Each project begins with listening, research, and reflection, allowing form, story, and collaboration to guide the final expression. I’m interested in work that holds meaning beyond trends - work that invites thought, connection, and presence.
Selected Work
At Esar Studios, I bring together fashion, editorial storytelling, community engagement, and reflective writing. Every project I take on is guided by intention, craft, and collaboration - designed to inspire, provoke thought, and create meaningful connection.
Custom-designed garments that explore timeless silhouettes and heritage textiles.
A fashion-forward storytelling project blending photography and concept design.
Creative Threads- A collaborative initiative empowering local youth through fashion and design.
Notes and Reflections
I write about creativity, philosophy, and culture - exploring the ideas behind the work I do, and often times, life in general.
