Beautiful African Print Clothing - Awesome Quality

5.00When I visited Accra we found this vendor. They made us some authentic African print outfits (dresses/vest/duster). We had our fittings and get this, everything was made in less than 48 hours. They brought their portable sewing machine when they dropped off the items (in case there were any alterations that were needed). Order your outfit, be it a sundress, bridesmaids or wedding dress, men's wear, children's clothing...they got you! Back in the USA, I wore my sundress today, so many people told me how beautiful my dress was, even a police officer complimented me!
Solid Material and style

5.00I enjoyed my time with Vera in Ghana. I appreciated the care she had in curating the experience as well as her knowledge of the history about the country as we toured the markets, it was an added bonus. As for the dresses, absolutely stunning. I had two dresses tailored to perfection. The tailoring experience felt like I was with family and friends and I received the dresses well before I needed or wanted to wear them. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone.
