Ghana Fashion & Design Week ‘Wonderland’ Editorial
As the Ghana Fashion & Design week continues its speedy approach (October 2015), fashion enthusiasts can already begin to wet their style appetites with Wonderland. Wonderland is an editorial that was specially created for the event which was inspired by the ‘Discovery of Knowledge.’ What sort of knowledge gained will this spread bring to the fore?
The editorial showcases the talents of three models: Ebba Merrington, Sofia Elhaj and Emilyne Mondo. The models come together posing in a natural setting to show the social evolution that has occured throughout the years. For instance, the models can be seen holding books as well as gazing at their texts indicating that knowledge has been not only gained but applied.
Some key points in regards to the production of the editorial is that the shoot was lensed by Adrenus Craton. Moreover, the models were styled by Daryl Rita Osekreh with fashions and accessories from: Casely Hayford, Paul Andrew, Roberto Cavali, Just Cavali, Curiously London, Sophia Kah and Felicia Swartling. The stunning hair and makeup was handled by the award-winning Charlotte Mensah and MUA Elaine Lynskey.

Model Alexis Primous Goes From Instagram to W Magazine Editorial!
With the world becoming more visual and smaller due to social media many hopefuls hope to be seen as well as discovered. Our feature photographer was just mentioning how many times you will see IG bios including an email as well as the words, “Serious inquires only!” Moreover, what about the countless memes joking about males and females being models apart of the Instagram modeling agency?
Those scenarios and situations only highlight the dream of going from Instagram unknown to a major force to be reckoned with in the modeling world. Nevertheless, for one fortunate young lady that is exactly what happened! Model Alexis Primous took part in an Instagram model search that was conducted in behalf of IMG Models as well as W Magazine. The search turned out to be fruitful giving girls from all over the chance to show off their modeling abilities instead of having to go to cities such as NYC or Los Angeles. Alexis hails from Florida proving that a Instagram contest can discover talent in all places quickly.
Primous beat out hundreds of hopefuls in order to star in her very first editorial. Looking at the photos of her shoot will amaze you by her talent level rendering her a complete natural in front of the camera. Alexis poses like a vet so that it is so hard to believe that it was her first shoot ever.
Alexis Primous’ editorial is solidifying her as a promising new face in the modeling industry. Her editorial which can be found in the September issue of W mag is 14 pages deep. The shoot was styled by the fab Edward Enninful and lensed by Mario Sorrenti.

NFL Player Victor Cruz Stars in Givenchy Fall/Winter 2015 Ad Campaign
We were already pumped up for the upcoming NFL season after this past weekend’s football festivities aka NFL Hall Fame Ceremony. However, being the fashion addicts we are seeing football meeting fashion had our style radar way up! NFL superstar Victor Cruz and owner of his own streetwear brand is lending his good looks to Givenchy.
Dang! Uhm… hi Mr. Cruz… 😉
Cruz can be seen in Givenchy’s ad campaign for fall/winter 2015. The suits he wears for the campaign are tailored to absolute perfection. We believe all men should own at least one pinstripe suit in their wardrobe. The style is sophisticated, luxurious and timeless making any man look like an instant classic. If your favorite guy is fighting you on the pinstripe suit tip just tell him it was good enough for The Godfather!
We tip our hats and martinis to Ricardo Tisci for choosing such an influential celebrity in the realm of men’s fashion for the Givenchy campaign. The exquisite ad was lensed by photography legends Marcus Piggot and Mert Atlas. It’s a great look for Givenchy and can’t wait to see more style from Victor Cruz in the future.
