Excellent designs at maiden GLAMEK Exclusive fashion show
It was a night of style and glamour as fashion designers of the GLAMEK Exclusive Institute stepped on the runway to exhibit their collections.
GLAMEK Exclusive is an institution with the mission to train, empower and provide entrepreneurial skills in areas of fashion design, creative arts and fashion technology.
The maiden fashion show highlighted designs such as bridal, beach (resort), corporate, casual and dinner collections from the students.
Themed ‘Cultural Fusion,’ it featured a mind-blowing display of textiles with different concepts created by the students.
In an interview with The Spectator, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of GLAMEK Exclusive Institute, Mrs Gloria Yeboah Ameyaw Kwei, said being a fashion designer does not necessarily mean one is not brilliant or a school dropout.
“We want the youth to know that when you are into fashion designing it does not mean the person is not academically good or did not attend school.
She explained that it was about time people drop that misconception that fashion designing is for school drop-outs and see it as a gift inherent in them from God.

‘Must have’ in children’s closet
It is essential to create a well-rounded closet for children to promote comfort, self-expression, and confidence.
The first thing every child must have in their closet are quality shoes to provide comfort and durability for daily activities.
Timeless classics, such as versatile clothing pieces, allow for mix-and-match flexibility. Layering essentials like lightweight jackets, sweaters, and hoodies help children adapt to changing weather conditions.
Dressy outfits for special occasions must not be left out in children’s closet. These outfits boost confidence of children.
Cozy sleepwear must be provided to ensure restful sleep. A functional closet helps children develop a sense of style and self-expression.
Parents can create a well-rounded closet by investing in quality over quantity, considering sustainable options, and encouraging children’s input in clothing choices.
Teaching clothing care and maintenance skills promotes responsibility.
