Nigerian designer Samuel Chinecherem Ezeh stitched 51.20-meter sleeves—longer than an Olympic pool—answering “Who holds the record for longest sleeves?” and “How do you break a Guinness World Record in fashion?” Ezeh, 27, powered through snapped needles and scarce sponsorship, quipping, “I was smiling on the road and felt like dancing,” after Guinness confirmed his victory.

Where most see fabric, Ezeh saw an intercontinental robe: his record-smashing garment used 62 yards of jampard and now aims for a global tour. Curious about “how much fabric needed for world records?” and “what inspires fashion world records?” Samuel’s quest required backup sewing machines and nerves of steel—plus, he dreams of flashing these sleeves in Times Square. His supervisor fetched needles as fast as fashion week models change.

Samuel Ezeh’s sleeves stretch 51.20 meters—outlengthing the Statue of Liberty—and cost him 70% of his own savings, all for a robe that could double as a pedestrian overpass.
