If you have been itching to see how foreign artists will look in African wear, today is your lucky day

Yass!

Ghanaian graphic designer, artist and fashion designer, Dennis Owusu-Ansah brought his awesome skills into recreating photos of these artists in African attire.

And they totally slayed.

His clothing line, Densah Collection features unisex pieces, bikinis, sneakers and back packs, all of which he personally paints by hand.

Brilliant!

He didn’t just re-imagine the artists in African attires, he named each piece in respective African names to go.
