The maiden edition of Fashion Icons Awards is set to
be launch at the plush Alisa hotel this month. The event promises to be the biggest
night in Ghana’s fashion industry, a unique and glamorous ceremony which was established
to recognize
and celebrate
the present icons and also to reward promising icons in the fashion industry.
The event will help nurture the rich kernels of
talent scattered liberally throughout the fashion industry, and shine a
spotlight on some of its most creative eclectic stakeholders, whose full
potential has been thus far unrealized.
This unique annual award ceremony aims to place a
spotlight on creative individuals who has contributed/invested in the local
fashion industry, creating sustainable economies through building of a rich
resource base and capacity utilization through viable strategic partnerships.
