May 16, (THEWILL) -Folake Coker, the ex-wife of the Director-General, Nigeria Tourism Development Corporation, Folorunsho Cooker, also known as Folly Coker has unveiled her flagship store in the highbrow area of Ikoyi, Lagos State. The gifted fashion designer who pioneered the ready-to-wear clothing through her Tiffany Amber label gathered fashion lovers to her new outlet last week.  The mother of three has put in over 20 years of hard-work in the fashion industry and she is the first African Fashion designer to showcase her collection at the New York Mercedes Fashion Week in two years in a row. Though Folake has conquered the fashion and business world, she has not had it smooth at the home front. Her marriage to Folly Coker crashed many years ago and the designer has remained in the singles club. Born with a silver spoon to the late wealthy business tycoon, Chief Bode Akindele, the Parakoyi of Ibadanland and the owner of Mondondola Group of Companies, an indigenous conglomerate in Nigeria and Fairgate Group, a top International real estate company, Coker’s marriage was blessed with three beautiful children before it ended.
