“Beatitudes” – Presenting the MABM Fall/Winter 2013 Collection featuring African Model with Vitiligo

When it comes to defining beauty, every culture has a standard. But there is a kind of beauty that is universal, that every man woman or child, no matter the language understands.

For the “Beatitudes” collection by Ghanaian fashion label MABM, the theme was confidence and self-acceptance. And what better way to show how every woman should accept herself the way she is than to use an inspiring model. Wearing colourful and stylish pieces from the collection is Kiara – the beautiful model with Vitiligo.

Vitiligo is a skin condition where some parts of the skin loose pigmentation causing white patches {to find out more, click here}.

The aim for the collection and ultimately the design label  is to bridge the gap between culture, style and fashion. It is about women being comfortable in themselves with what they wear as they embrace their sense of style.

According to the designer Maa Akua Berko-Mensah, “as a Ghanaian, my culture and upbringing have the biggest impact on the birth of my clothing line. The most important thing in our business is to adorn our women with confidence. At MABM Designs, our aim is to bridge the gap between culture, style and fashion. It’s really about women being able to be confident in themselves with what they wear as they embrace their nurtured sense of style.“

I think the model is beautiful and confident and really worked the shoot but above all, I think we need more lookbooks like this. Share your thoughts.
