5 Ghanaians making us proud in fashion around the world

Ghanaians in the diaspora are really putting their country on the world.

In the past, the world of fashion was dominated by the whites and not an area where blacks usually thrived on the international front but there has been a paradigm shift.

The fashion spheres have taken a new form on the bigger stage where black excellence has taken its seat. Now, people of different race are being appreciated and given the platform to show the rest of the world what they are made of and some Ghanaians now occupy such space.

It is a new era and Ghana is making great strides in the world of fashion in diverse ways proving that Ghana is really the home of the most beautiful people in the world.
