There's something weird and unique about this dress. I didn't fall in love with it the minute I tried it on but somehow it works and it's different. Also, I'm obsessed with my gold chokers from Fanm Djanm. I abosulutely love and support everything the founder, Paola, is doing with her Fanm Djanm Movement.
This outfit went through so many alterations and changes but in the end we got there! When I first set my eyes on this fabric I had a vision of what I wanted the outfit to look like. This design totally brought that vision to life. I absolutely love the finished product.

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
