Vlisco chooses seven inspiring African women, including the Grammy Award-winning eclectic artist Angelique Kidjo and award-winning TV host and radio presenter Anita Erskine, as faces of its 170 years campaign.
The Dutch-owned wax print company states that it seeks to honor and inspire all African women through the stories of the women it chose from Ghana, Nigeria, Togo, Ivory Coast, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Benin to celebrate this period in its history.
It is quite refreshing to see real women from the continent with unique success stories as faces of a power brand like Vlisco. We look forward to seeing more premium brands in fashion follow suit.
