Fashion Week Las Vegas
Here is the Host of Ankara Fest La 2013, Tzebakah Rahab(@ChibbzCeasar) wearing one of our designs to open the show In addition to designs from Oyato Designs, Sumahrie Collections (Sierra Leone), Afriq Expressions, NssA, Tee, a talented bevy of performers were featured as well. From singer/songwriter/guitarist Namoi to hip-hop duo Mobeatz (@Mobeatz5) and Chibbz (@ChibbzCeasar). 18 year old female MC (Tzebakah Rahab) brought a presence to the stage that was beyond her years, and in chatting with her backstage following her performance, she was both humble and graceful. Chibbz returned to the stage, this time with singer Lola Savage (@LolaSav) to close out the show. Lola Savage hopes to utilize music as a way to expose all cultures to African Culture. The pair performed while looks from headlining designer, Korto Momolu of Liberia—who appeared on the Heidi Klum-lead design show “Project Runway.” The finale most certainly called to mind the well-known “Rip the Runway” with the combination of fly models and electric musical performance.
