Fashion entrepreneur Onyansani has returned with his long-awaited piece – The Royal Collection.
The Royal collection, which forms part of the numerous collections by the designer, marks his 10th year in the fashion space.
The pieces were inspired by the Zongo community - its environment the people and the culture.
In an interview, the designer born Suleman Abdul Mumuni said, "I grew up and still live in the Zongo, and I want my people to have and feel a sense of originality, belonging, and confidence when they are adorned in this design."
“This is who we are. Our confidence is tired to self-believe, and wearing an outfit made by one of us is a way to communicate believe in our own, and by extension of ourselves. I pray everyone can come to terms with how I’m feeling now as a Zongo boy and a Muslim."
The Royal collection, which comes in different colours, is a long outfit (jalbaab) mostly worn by Muslims but with a touch of authenticity in design.
Touched by the master himself with the best finishing, it has luxurious embroidery designs and signs of African descent.
The 33-year-old family man, who branched into fashion after his fall off the educational ladder in 2006 when he was first admitted to the University Of Ghana is back at Legon after 14 years to pursue his tertiary education.
Onyansani, the Joyce Ababio College Of Creativity and Design (Vogue Style) and Kofi Ansah trained, is still running his fashion house with nine employees.
The Fabric does not only look good but feels good on the body and give off a sense of freedom. It gently falls on your skin and makes room for easy movement and comfy, he said.
Onyansani has since worked with clients from all works of life; corporate heads, religious leaders, and celebrities.
Revered fashion platforms and stages that have showcased his works span from the local to international scene; Mercedes Benz Africa Fashion Festival 2014, 2015, 2016,2017; Global Fashion Week 2019; African Fashion Week Dubai 2017; Rendezvous VIP Fashion Night 2016 Lome - Togo; Ecowas Fashion Week 2015 Cotonou - Benin; Fesma Fashion show 2015 Cotonou among others.
