AYO A MODEL AGENCY
Who we are: Ayo A is a home for fashion and editorial
models. It is a Kumasi based modeling agency which deals mostly with the creative
minds in fashion. We seek to organize major fashion events for young designers
in and outside Kumasi. We are located on the campus of the Kwame Nkrumah University
of Science and Technology.
How we started: We held a model casting
at the beginning of the year and the turnout was amazing, therefore we decided
to train the models we had for our first fashion show that took place in February
last year.
What we have done: Ayo A Models Gh
organized the first ever KNUST fashion
weekend last year on Campus which saw amazing works from young designers like Sarah
Christian, Imo, kwekuoutluk and many others. Also gracing the runway were
designs from young celebrated Ghanaian couture designer, Afri-Ken Novelty.
Models from Ayo A also modeled in
Charity fashion show organized by the Medical students of the Okomfo Anokye Teaching
Hospital. Amazingly, Ayo A models were solely used for the Da viva fashion show
in Golden Tulip in Kumasi, which climaxed their national fashion workshop held
May this year. Other things the Agency has been involved in are ad campaigns
for Kwekuoutluk, Exube Couture.
The year’s event is
designed to showcase the collections of various fashion designers in and out of
campus. It will be a platform for the designers here in Kumasi to showcase
their spectacular designs in a major fashion show. Prior to the main event,
there will be sales of many fashion items and also two days fashion and
entrepreneurship seminar for students and designers which will be climaxed with
the fashion shows.
This year’s event begins on the 13th

the KNUST campus. This year’s fashion week is in conjunction with the Textiles Students
Association and fashionghana.com.
