Teyan Taylor Serves African Fashion Her Way
However, if you think that is the most you will see of the actress in African fashion think again. Last week Teyan Taylor published more images, as usual, to share her fabulous style with the world.
There is no denying her urban style composed of bralette tops, baggy pants definitely pick some influence from the 90s era, specifically resembling that of Aaliyah and old skul RnB groups like Xscape.
Still, within her urban persona, Teyan managed to serve a touch of African fashion by rocking a bogolan fabric jacket.
The Great Bogolan Fabric
The bogolan fabric is a traditionally made-in-Mali fabric known to westerners as Mud Cloth. It sees angular patterns with cream and different shades of brown, at times monochrome. Some of which is sold on our online boutique.

It’s a handmade Malian cotton fabric traditionally dyed with fermented mud. It has an important place in traditional Malian culture and has, more recently, become a symbol of Malian cultural identity.
Teyan Keeps It Real
Recently, there have been various print editions stemming from China, but we can assure you Teyan Taylor is rocking the original edit.
Although the creative/s behind the brand was not creditted, the message was still strong. See her do her thing below.

UPCOMING TOP EVENTS!
Ghana’s leading fashion event Accra Fashion Week is scheduled for 7-11 December 2022 following their 5th-year celebration last year in 2021. Accra Fashion Week is a platform for African designers that can be compared to fashion weeks across the major capitals. It aims to fill the void which sees tremendous creativity and culture across the continent with the absence of an operating fashion infrastructure.
The epic event took place at Ghana Dubai in Accra, and saw models march down the steps from the Kwame Nkrumah Monument whilst being followed by a spotlight, before circulating the central fountains. Memories of the exciting night still give chills as guests revisit the experience on youtube.
However, rest assured that 2022 is going to be even more exciting with greater performances and an upgraded designer collection. FashionGHANA.com is sure to bring you the exclusives we did on www.FashionGHANA.com/TV. All last year’s shows are available to watch on youtube. Designer’s registration is ongoing on the AccraFashionWeek.org website.
As we embark on another year of celebrating African culture, our theme for 2022 is “Afrofuturism.” This term was created to explore the developing intersection of cultural aesthetic, philosophy of science, and philosophy of history as it relates to the African Diaspora. During this year’s events, Afrochella will bring “Afrofuturism” to life through fashion, food, art and music. In 2019, the African Diaspora returned home to the continent for the “Year of Return.” This year, we will explore the endless possibilities of what “Afrofuturism” could look like in 2022 and beyond.
