The Kente and beads exhibition held at the Artists Alliance gallery (Omanye house) at La was yet another historical moment for Ghana in fashion. The traditional cloth of both the Ashanti and Ewe people, Woven with fine cotton (some rayon) were a sight to see. Can u believe some kente cloths on display were as old as 90years!!. Now thats old. Durability at its best. The beads, o my.. such intricate and exquisite colourful designs with so much history caught the eyes of every one.
The opportunity to string and design your very own beads was the part we loved best.
Here are some shots we took.....
