After seeing the beautiful and vibrant garments that her grandmother created, she named her label after her. Born in 2008 in Accra, Ghana, the fashion brand Christie Brown is the brainchild of Aisha Ayens. From creating mini collections for her dolls with shreds of leftover material when she was young, Aisha has grown into creating beautiful apparels for the strong African woman through Christie Brown. The brand was launched with a powerful runway show and had been growing powerfully ever since. Today, Christie Brown is set apart from other fashion labels because of its uniqueness and originality, giving confidence and class to the women who wear its apparel. It stands strong as a manufacturer and retailer of accessories too, bold and one-of-a-kind. The pieces range from exquisite tailor-made dresses and gorgeous gowns to ready-to-wear accessories that speak louder than words. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f632b9ee0e0be6ec5b68858/1601323721559/CHRISTIE+BROWN+BUSTIER+YARA+.jpg CHRISTIE BROWN CHRISTIE BROWN BUSTIER NIA https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f632a8ff68bdc0c1a86f561/1601323727650/CHRISTIE+BROWN+BUSTIER+NANDI+.jpg CHRISTIE BROWN CHRISTIE BROWN BUSTIER NANDI https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f6329a540b31f4a143c8d39/1601323723882/CHRISTIE+BROWN+BUSTIER+NIA+.jpg CHRISTIE BROWN CHRISTIE BROWN BUSTIER YARA https://www.festivalafricana.com/talensi daily 0.75 2020-09-29 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f722bad1412194f1560be69/1601317645758/Aisha+Ayensu+-+Creative+Director+Christie+Brown+%C2%A9+Duque+Quarshie+.jpg TALENSI - TALENSI Sandi Owusu "We'll cross the river when we get there," Sandi’s father use to say when she was growing up. As a child, she believed that this saying was encouraging procrastination. Since she started her business, she realized that it's the best approach to overcome obstacles by not worrying about them but trusting you'll surely overcome them. Talensi is the name of a town Sandi found herself in when she got lost on the way to Bolgatanga in the Northern part of Ghana. She stayed for the night and felt welcomed by the town's people. The next day, she continued her journey with renewed energy and commitment. For Talensi, fashion can be ethical in an unexpected way. The brand has collaborated with local artists and producers, well-founded in Ghanaian art and culture, and passionate about giving their audience the tool they need to stand out among the crowd. By mixing contemporary vibes with traditional motifs on raw materials made in Africa, Talensi has made itself an indigenous and trendy brand, perfect for today’s woman. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f722bad1412194f1560be6f/1601317645767/CHRISTIE+BROWN+BUSTIER+NIA+.jpg TALENSI CHRISTIE BROWN BUSTIER YARA https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f722bad1412194f1560be6c/1601317645763/CHRISTIE+BROWN+BUSTIER+YARA+.jpg TALENSI CHRISTIE BROWN BUSTIER NIA https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f722bad1412194f1560be72/1601317645771/CHRISTIE+BROWN+BUSTIER+NANDI+.jpg TALENSI CHRISTIE BROWN BUSTIER NANDI https://www.festivalafricana.com/daar-living daily 0.75 2020-09-29 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f722b0d4565b63db8a05686/1601244160655/Aisha+Ayensu+-+Creative+Director+Christie+Brown+%C2%A9+Duque+Quarshie+.jpg DAAR LIVING - DAAR LIVING Senanu Arkutu - Daar Living Although Senanu Arkutu was born in Dar es Salaam to Ghanaian parents, she grew up in Swaziland, Nigeria, and Zimbabwe.

Her life was always full of surprises, but the biggest one was when she surprised herself by leaving behind her career in reproductive health and international development and moved on to follow her heart. Senanu had always wanted to express herself more artistically and colorfully than the usual paintings, clothing, writing, and more. Daar Living, her African-inspired interior design, was born in 2013, not only for those living in Africa but beyond. Intending to provide a haven through hand-crafted homeware while creating designs that will achieve international recognition, Daar Living transcends your average interior styling service.

The name of the brand, Ohene Mantse, means 'King' in the Akan and Ga languages in Ghana., as the clothing lines aim to make the average African person feel like a king. The brand emerged out of its founder's trying times, which is why the designs and quality are exceptional and eye-catching. This label's designs are inspired by everything Ghana, from the vibrant communities and rich cultures to the freedom of landscapes and sunny views. Rather than a fashion brand, Ohene Mantse is a statement of Ghana and all it is. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f722b9b5ad6b55b7fadc4eb/1601317645767/CHRISTIE+BROWN+BUSTIER+NIA+.jpg OHENE MANTSE CHRISTIE BROWN BUSTIER YARA https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f722b9b5ad6b55b7fadc4e8/1601317645763/CHRISTIE+BROWN+BUSTIER+YARA+.jpg OHENE MANTSE CHRISTIE BROWN BUSTIER NIA https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f722b9b5ad6b55b7fadc4ee/1601317645771/CHRISTIE+BROWN+BUSTIER+NANDI+.jpg OHENE MANTSE CHRISTIE BROWN BUSTIER NANDI https://www.festivalafricana.com/atto-tetteh daily 0.75 2020-09-29 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f722ba7a23702348717128f/1601317645758/Aisha+Ayensu+-+Creative+Director+Christie+Brown+%C2%A9+Duque+Quarshie+.jpg ATTO TETTEH - ATTO TETTAH George Tetteh George Tetteh is on a mission! He believes that the African man deserves a fashion sense that makes him bold, unique, and stand tall. So in 2014, he founded Atto Tetteh, an Accra-based menswear brand for the extraordinary African man. More than just a fashion brand, Atto Tetteh wants to tell Africa’s untold stories.

Atto Tetteh is a luxury brand, creating clothes of only the best quality. Each stitch and motif is made with the African man's elegance in mind. These designs feature a touch of African art and culture, combining the traditional patterns of old-school clothes with modern designs that today’s African man would be proud to wear.

She filled the empty notebooks that her classmates brought to her and shared her works on Facebook. Before she knew it, she had amassed a dedicated fan base and found her place in the literary space in Accra. Her career as a performance poet started when she first attended the Ehalakasa poetry event, held twice a week. Ama felt like she had finally found her place, and so she decided to perform. Through Ehalakasa, she expanded her fan base, got invites and appearance requests to poetry slams, and launched events while studying Business Information Systems at university. She never deliberately decided to become a performance poet, but life had different plans for her as she found herself slowly pulled into it. Now that she has completed her masters’ program in creative writing in Chicago, Ama is back in Ghana, publishing a fiction and poetry collection. Ama is the founder of Tampered Press, a journal, and she is working on becoming a visual artist. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f722c3628eb6624c69b27ad/1600334890294/CHRISTIE+BROWN+BUSTIER+NIA+.jpg POETRA ASANTEWA CHRISTIE BROWN BUSTIER YARA https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f722c3628eb6624c69b27b0/1600334919321/CHRISTIE+BROWN+BUSTIER+NANDI+.jpg POETRA ASANTEWA CHRISTIE BROWN BUSTIER NANDI https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f722c3628eb6624c69b27aa/1600334880873/CHRISTIE+BROWN+BUSTIER+YARA+.jpg POETRA ASANTEWA CHRISTIE BROWN BUSTIER NIA https://www.festivalafricana.com/larry-jay daily 0.75 2020-09-29 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f722ba3a01c1f1e30487232/1601317645758/Aisha+Ayensu+-+Creative+Director+Christie+Brown+%C2%A9+Duque+Quarshie+.jpg LARRY JAY - LARRY JAY Larry Jafaru Mohammed Founded by Larry Jafaru Mohammed, Larry Jay is a unisex fashion brand set in Ghana's heart and focused on creating only the most fashionable clothes and accessories for everyday people who want to stand out.

Named after the Akan phrase that means 'remember me,' or, 'forget me not,' Kaeme took the African subcontinent by storm from its founding and has shown no signs of slowing down. Freda founded Kaeme with three things: a few jars, the skills, and passion for creating cream, which enriches the skin, and the desire to share her discoveries with others. So, she began to mix her ingredients to formulate creams for her friends and family. With the perfect combination of Ghana's fine shea butter and ten years of experience, Freda was able to stir up shea butter creams that were light, pure, and awaken the users' senses while nurturing the skin. Freda decided to commercialize her unique formula, and that was when Kaeme was born. From hand-crafted natural ingredients to essential oils and experienced makers, Kaeme uses a perfect combination of all necessities to create raw shea butter and black soap products for Black skin’s beauty. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f722c46e0657a294a7a41a5/1600334880873/CHRISTIE+BROWN+BUSTIER+YARA+.jpg KAEME CHRISTIE BROWN BUSTIER NIA https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f722c46e0657a294a7a41ab/1600334919321/CHRISTIE+BROWN+BUSTIER+NANDI+.jpg KAEME CHRISTIE BROWN BUSTIER NANDI https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f722c46e0657a294a7a41a8/1600334890294/CHRISTIE+BROWN+BUSTIER+NIA+.jpg KAEME CHRISTIE BROWN BUSTIER YARA https://www.festivalafricana.com/membership daily 0.75 2020-08-27 https://www.festivalafricana.com/membership/p/annual-membership monthly 0.5 2020-08-27 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/5f4672d5223e32725cbafbd3/5f47c2fead53256c11ca6f9a/1598538498154/Untitled-1-01.jpg Become a member - Standard Membership https://www.festivalafricana.com/membership/p/premium-membership-1 monthly 0.5 2020-08-27 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/5f4672d5223e32725cbafbd3/5f47c31ff0f6cc540d0c48fc/1598538531524/Untitled-1-02.jpg Become a member - Premium Membership https://www.festivalafricana.com/creatives-index daily 0.75 2020-08-27 https://www.festivalafricana.com/creatives-index/fashion-design monthly 0.5 2020-09-28 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f7128e5080c5d3cdcb713e5/1601331105227/Aisha+Ayensuh+-+Creative+Director+Christie+Brown+%C2%A9+Duque+Quarshie+.jpg CREATIVES index - FASHION & DESIGN WOMENSWEAR Aisha Ayensu - Creative Director https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f7128976994936d8fe0b44f/1601318487443/Sandi+Owusu-Creative+Director.jpg CREATIVES index - FASHION & DESIGN WOMENSWEAR Sandi Owusu-Creative Director https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f712c92485a946f48afe720/1601318497721/work+2.jpg CREATIVES index - FASHION & DESIGN WOMEN & MENSWEAR Georges Atto Tetteh - Creative Director https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f71317416ffd844a3e1bdca/1601318514854/work+7.jpg CREATIVES index - FASHION & DESIGN WOMEN & MENSWEAR Larry Jafaru - Creative Director https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f71300a2b388d20dad435fd/1601318530426/Neal+David+Dodoo CREATIVES index - FASHION & DESIGN MENSWEAR Neal David Dodoo - Creative Director https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f712f9a1d058032c8ba853c/1601318555837/Jason+Jermaine+Asiedu CREATIVES index - FASHION & DESIGN WOMEN & MENSWEAR Jermaine Asiedu - Creative Director https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f712db97954eb2beb46e7d4/1601318542458/Johnson+Martey+Junior CREATIVES index - FASHION & DESIGN WOMEN & MENSWEAR Johnson Martey J. - Creative Director https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f7141c52b388d20dad6329d/1601318594175/Senanu+ARKUTU CREATIVES index - FASHION & DESIGN HOME STYLING Senanu Arkutu - Founder https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f3befb552330e2d3ac2c225/t/5f71410ab66cd43eed7ff473/1601318571095/Eyiwaa++Agyekumhene+-+Creative+Director CREATIVES index - FASHION & DESIGN ACCESSORIES E.
