This is the magic that happens when you take high fashion inspiration and cover it in hand woven African Kente fabric. My mom gifted me with two different Kente fabrics that weren't big enough for a dress individually, but I put them together and the result was this beautiful blazer dress.
Akwiyah is a personal style outlet. When I'm in Ghana I take advantage of the incredible fabrics that are synonymous with our culture. I get the opportunity to share our beautiful fabrics on here to who ever may stumble upon them.
The name Akwiyah (ay-kwee-yah) originates from Ghana - my hometown. In the Ashanti Region in Ghana when a child is born he/she is named after the day he/she was born. I was born on a Wednesday or Akwiydah. The name Akwiyah is derived from Akwiyadah. Contact: abiakua7891@gmail.com
