This win isn’t my win alone. I know,it sounds cliché but it’s true. Think about it! A product from a small business in Ghana, is seen being worn, on the front cover of Vanity Fair(also got mentioned on a double page spread). How amazing is that!!! This only means,I am all the evidence you need that YOU can make it too. It is very very possible 💋”
