St. Frimpong
St. Frimpong was founded in the in spring 2007, by St. Eugene Frimpong; with an unfulfilled desire for perfection which can be expressed in the designs. His style is influenced by a mixture of African and Western culture, which to him is the epitome of everlasting glam.
Fashion designer St. Eugene Frimpong was born in Ghana. He received his bachelor’s degree in fashion design at the International Academy of Design and Technology – Chicago. By mixing his African heritage with a little glam, St. Frimpong omits an enticing new look to the mainstream fashion industry.
“I am a fashion designer, fashion has always been a part of my life. As a designer I want my garments to tell stories about who I am and where I come from. I wanted to join the fashion industry because the clothes in Ghana were not form fitting for the women and I wanted to fix just that. The women who wear my clothes aren’t afraid to be themselves and be free.
I believe that fashion is not just the garment, it is the story behind the garment that makes it unique. That’s why my agreements are edgy, confident and elegant with a flare of culture; made for the modern women.” Visit www.st.frimpong.com for more information
