In this episode, fashion-insider, host Kristen Cole sits with designer Kwame Adusei in Tribeca, NYC, as he visits the city from LA. The two discuss his brand's singular look: LA sexiness merged with his African heritage, particularly silhouette, cut and design influences from his Ghana. They catch up on the latest on his one-year old label, now in its third collection, and on his career in fashion. They discuss Kwame's commitment to making clothes that last, staying present and bringing "love to the industry"; as well as his upbringing in Ghana and fashion business in Accra, his new home and store in Los Angeles, minimalist taste, celebrity clients, designing for African body shapes and strong, independent women. He also reveals the insights gained from a chance meeting with Pierpaolo Piccioli, and what's on his mood board now. Kristen also touches on Rakuten Fashion Week Tokyo, the book Unraveled by Maxine Bedat, Fashion Reimagined, Tech and AI in fashion, Ocurate... and more.
