Sankofa fashion show

I have been in Liberia for close to 3 months now. It has been one of the most amazing three months of my life. The preparation of the Sankofa fashion show was worth it. Korto Momolu designed one of the most amazing collections I have ever seen. It really spoke to the women of Liberia, to all women of Africa. Really all women period.
Here are a few photos from the Yekepa show.

  3. I seriously love what your doing! late night err early morning blog hopping and found yours! I love that your using your god given creativity to expand his kingdom & be his hands and feet. Keep dreaming big and letting the lord guide your path. Proverbs 31 She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy....She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes...

    Blessings!
