Style, creativity, glamour and glitz greeted the Ghana Fashion Week over the weekend as pretty face, gorgeous, half-naked models teetered tentatively down the end of catwalk.
The two-day programme was not just another fashion show. It was characterized by exhibitions and seminars.
Dazzling women in glitter, wearing sky-high heels in elaborate clothing gave the audience enough reason to turn up for the second day's event. While some of the models had bodies with killer curves, others weren’t as naturally blessed.
Designers such as Mina Evans, Oroma Cookey-Gam, Mimi Lee, Coccolily, Mort and More, Christie Brown and AFG-Trade Not Aid did their best to wow the audience with their unique designs.
Unveiling her Spring/Summer 2013 collection dubbed “Twisted Romance”, Creative Director Mina Evans-Anfom featured fabrics like oganza, Tie and Die and introduced twisted pleats.
The collections, according to her, were “inspired by the image on the reverse of deserted curved beach chairs”. At this fashion show, Mina fused hard and soft with a whimsical twist through her use of colour and fabric.
The collection from Alali Boutique was an adaptation of the fall 2012 dubbed: ‘Need for Glam’. It was inspired by surface water sports wear and the glamour of the 1950s.
The Resort 2013 collection explored inequalities, gradients and geometry in fashion, sportswear minimalism, sheeriness in chiffon and mesh.
Synonymous with the Mimi Lee London Brand, the Mimi’s Skin, Spring/Summer 2013 collection was largely characterized by delicate layers of tulle merged with leather, delicately hand-sewn lace and exotic ostrich feathers.
The sheer fabrics created an elegant silhouette to enhance feminity and were indeed a bold variation of shapes, fabrics, colour and texture.
Glitter wasn't the only thing glistening on the runway. The combination of the fashion, makeup and celebrity appearances created a bit of a spectacle on a grand scale.
Actress and TV personality, Ama K. Abebrese, musician Debora Vanessa and fashionista/hostess of Fashion 101, Sandra Ankobea were all spotted at the event.
