"Akosua graduated from Kingston University London with a BA (Hons) in Fashion and amassed an impressive resume of fashion industry experience whilst in London.  From designer to co-owner of a fashion brand and now creative director of her own brand A A K S, has resulted in a broad industry knowledge from multiple perspectives." 

"A A K S was founded by Akosua Afriyie-Kumi with the goal of introducing the world to her favourite weaving techniques by the women of Ghana, increasing awareness around ethical production processes and encouraging sustainable consumption in the fashion world.  Handcrafted in Ghana, A A K S creates handbags in styles that seeks to conserve the provenance of weaving as an art form, accentuated with the bright exuberant colours of Africa.
