A selection of my clothes made in Ghana

One of the perks of living in Ghana is to be able to get custom tailored clothes probably more easily than in anywhere else in the world. You go to the market, buy fabric, tell your seamstress what you want and within a few days you own an awesome and unique piece of clothing. Easy as that!

Since I have been sewing my own clothes for more than five years, I considered buying my own machine when I first came to Ghana. However, there are some superb tailors and seamstresses around, so I decided to support them instead. Fortunately, my seamstress is not only extremely skilled and fast, but also my neighbour.
