Now lets meet OBYA COUTURE by Nana Yaa and she is from Ghana. I know you would agree with me when I say her work is Fabulous.
In the words of Ohemma from zimbio.com she describes OBYA,
"as a clothing line that has been dubbed as one to watch. OBYA is a beautiful, classy and chic clothing and accessory line for fierce ladies. It’s a combination of African and western style in a twist collection. OBYA gives the impression that African prints and styles can be classy, chic and fun, the brand seeks to bring out the hidden beautiful, classy chic in every lady. OBYA is made up of beautiful accessories and the faith line made up of beautiful well tailored couture. OBYA Couture was established and trademarked in 2010. Inspired by all aspects of fashion and major designers from the early nineties until this present day. OBYA aims to be unique and offers higher end garments at reasonable prices. The collection shown are all made by OBYA at their fashion studio in Ghana so when you buy from OBYA be rest assured you will receive the up most quality. This collection defines bold prints, lots of colour, and most of all one off designs you will not find anyone wearing."
When did you start designing?
I have always had a beautiful passion for fashion,but i actually just had time to take it up last summer
What inspires your creations?
My inspiration comes from the modern fab afrocentric girl and woman between 18-35,who has taste for fashion filled with class,glitz and glamour. My inspiration comes from women who are uniquely different, you could just tell even the simple things in life she owes are uniquely different
Who do you think the best dressed Ghanaian celebrity is?
emmmmmmm this is quite hard....cause Ghanaian celebrities are quite inconsistent.you don't see them most of the time to keep up.but id say John Jermain is on point...
Where can someone go if they want to get something of yours?
Currently since am in my final semester in uni....i work through orders from my page obyacouture or from home.but my line will be out at belissimas in the accra mall soon.
What next? where do you go from here?
Actually i started with ankara inspired tee tops for my first collection,now I've expanded my line with a new set of glam clutches called ahocf3 dua, coming out soon.its a line filled with fabulousity,am also working on launching my line officially soon.

What wonderful photos and models, and the styles are amazing! I especially love the look shown in the third photo, with pink and yellow on top - it looks like a gorgeous tribal-style statement necklace built into the piece. Thanks for another cool showcase, Peekadot. Hope your busy life calms down a little bit this week.
