I absolutely love these outfits. I have been sketching my own designs and I always get excited when I find inspiration like this. The designer, Phyllis Taylor, is from Ghana, West Africa and manufactures this work of art from there. Her clientele is based in the UK and the US. Her online store lists the outfits in euros – in the 3 digit range – but I am getting some ideas of what I can make for myself – cheaper. Even though it has been (and still is) a slow, gradual process, I am proud and supportive of Africa’s rising presence in the fashion world. There is so much we can offer.
