You will definately make good money as long as your clothes are reasonably priced and of good quality. The fact is that if you sell good stuff and you are located at Badagry, people will always call you up to buy from you.
I will give you a brief low-down of very good boutique in Lagos that has fared really really well and maybe you can learn some few things.
LOP. Land of Plenty located on Kofo Abayomi Street, Victoria Island.
Now, Kofo Abayomi street cannot really be described as a 'busy' street on the island. Yet, LOP occupies a whole, big duplex, where they sell their wares. LOP had been at that location for as long as i can remember. (1999). Now, LOP has no fancy billboard or banners, but their selling point has been through word of mouth. I have friends that are based in Ekiti, and will travel all the way down to LOP to shop.
They sell everything. Male and female clothes, accessories, even original foreign music CDs.
Before Twice as Nice came on the scene and even before the T.M Lewin franchise shop opened at Awolowo Road (i think they've relocated now), LOP has been selling for T.Ms for 7.5. Besides, their T.Ms are not as common as those found at Twice as Nice. Buy a T.M. from twice as nice and buy the time you get to unilag, you find about 3other guys if not more wearing the same thing.
In summary, they sell unique and affordable things. Maybe, you should come down to lagos and pay a visit to the place.
Another tip, you can also invest in footwear. Personally, i feel the footwear market has lots of potentials. You sell affordable and lovely footwear, you will have great patronage.
Best of luck.

It's very easy to import without any ban affecting it.just buy 4 set of cheap luggage in ASDA and filled it with clothes then go to local couriers in south east london and ship them.u can do the same from yankee as well, na so i dey do.i no dey carry luggage go naija.i go don buy things i needed and ship them and just go home with just free hand luggage.u can get good stuffs at bluewater and west end(london), manchester arndale, birmingham,then paris, italy and yankee.i bet u many guys go put head for naija.especially my friends wey never get visa.them go won belong.so, them go try best stores for island and allen.so go ahead and mind how u go.

I am in the process of starting the same business idea for Lagos. I am a fashion major in California and I noticed that at the mall i went to in naija(was it SILVERBIRD?), Wrangler was one of the only stores there that most young people there could afford. All of the other boutiques were high end and stuffy looking dress clothes that only elite or older working class people in naija could buy. Gucci sunglasses that were going for $300? PLEASE! I know Nigerians love nice things, but what about the seriously well made knock-offs that are great quality and sell for about $60? I didnt see that there. I would love to have a boutique at Palms or Silverbird that sells real designer things(for people that can afford it), and also sweet fakes that are good quality and last long(for students who want to look hot but at a better price). At least thats how the malls here in the USA works, it appeals to everyone rich, poor and in between. Things are put on the "sale" rack and advertised, then business from young people comes right away. I'm learning these things about Naija, and i noticed that no matter how poor or low income an area may get, Nigerians will always want the latest styles and trends. QUALITY CLOTHING WILL ALWAYS BE IN HIGH DEMAND THERE. I cannot wait to do business there. It takes too many degrees and/or business licenses to have all of that in US.

fellybabe, thanks a lot for that. will look out for those shops altho i must say I have been to alade (mostly the front end along Allen ave) and have yet to spot top shop,
Chi*babe, totally agree with you. I have also noted wrangler is the only shop at the malls that has affordable items. got me wondering if there shoprite and game, why not edgars, truworths, woolworths to give these other boutique guys some competition. I bet you prices will go down.
