Whilst most designers are swayed away by looking outwards for their next big outfit and emulating modern western designs with print fabrics, amazing local illustrators like @metakay are showing and proving to us the powers that be when they look within for inspiration. His latest illustration depicts a fabulous styled dress made out of a locally popular Ghanaian delicacy called Kenkey. ‘Kenkey is a staple dish similar to sourdough dumpling from the Ga and Fante-inhabited regions of West Africa, usually served with pepper sauce and fried fish or soup, stew.’- Wikipedia More Articles You Would Love #fGSTYLE: 4 Office Looks That Will Always Work For Plain Color Lovers Nkyinkyim Collection By Ghanaian Label Alikoto Why Kenkey Remains Popular In Ghana Despite how tasty Kenkey may be, its affordability excludes its branding for the upper end of society hence why it remains a local dish.
