Aside having an unwarranted social media tiff with the likes of Mzbel and Moesha, the one other thing that Nana Akua Addo is known for is not the many movies she has starred in but the many times she has slayed on the red carpet with her ridiculous expensive designer dresses.
In an interview Graphic Showbiz, Nana Akua has told the world how much she does not like the Ghanaian designers and has given somewhat reasonable reasons.
She said:
“There are some very good Ghanaian fashion designers and I love wearing them but most of the rest don’t have an identity. They could move away from the “copy copy” designs and carve a niche for themselves by being creative in order to stand out.”
“I don’t joke with my appearances so I spend a lot on the designs I wear on red carpets. That is what has earned me global attention and I’m already using it to build my brand,”
“I don’t want to mention the price of my gown but the truth is that, a Leo design can cost GH¢60,000 to 10,000 cedis. That is not to say that is how much mine cost because I have a deal with the designer and doesn’t charge me as other clients.”
“I wanted to be the first person to wear this gown but there was no cash to pay for it so my designer had to sell it to Miss Phillipines when she saw it in the showroom. That explains why she was the first person seen wearing it but it was originally made for me,” she said.
“I really had to be alert because it was a gown made of real stone pearls. You can imagine its weight but hey, I pulled it off in a grand style and I love every bit of that experience.”
