In recent years, African fashion has taken a prominent place in the global fashion world. One designer who has showcased his designs on various international runways is French Cameroonian designer, Ayissi Nga Joseph-Marie of Wazal Couture. His recent collection, tagged Ova Tété has received a lot of attention.

The way he used classic African fabric to create stylish and elegant pieces is ingenious, providing a stylish and forward looking way to wear our signature fabric. The cut is just amazing with a touch of Paris chic. The use of African print and leather to create an edgy look is simply amazing.

According to the designer, the Ova Tété Colection was inspired by a Cameroonian slang ‘ova’ which means an important and noble person; and Tété which refers to chic and bourgeois. There is no doubt that his clothing will appeal to a chic and stylish person.

The fabrics used in this collection were prime African print (wax) from Senegal and Mali. The collection has been described as ‘avant garde’.

Wazal Couture was launched in 2005 and since then, the brand has been worn by several celebrities. The name WAZAL was created from a blend of two different concepts; ‘Waza’, which is the name of a natural park in the extreme north of Cameroon and the letter ‘L’, whih stands for Lion, the national symbol of Cameroon.

We’ve been following Wazal Couture for a while and really can’t wait to get our hands on one of the pieces. We love what Ayissi has done with the label. We wish him and the team at Wazal all the best.
