For most of the collections shown at the 2012 Ghana Fashion & Design Week, our issues were the same. The designers showed a lot of promise but lacked a unique point of view both in the execution of the vision of their designs and garment construction. Nevertheless, there is a lot of promise shown and with better curation by the producers, Ghanaian designers will come to understand the kind of level they ought to be operating from.
For the Brigitte Merki collection, we saw the same issues described above. Below are the looks that showed more promise from this design label.
