Dedo Kofi brought culture and tradition alive at the International Women’s Conference in Dubai with an exotic varicoloured kente fabric fashioned to mimic the attire worn during Dipo.
The pontifical feminine attire, conceptualized from the Dipo wear, was draped with handwoven kente fabric from one of Ghana’s best weavers, Gobe Kente.
At first glance, one can mistake Dedo Kofi for wearing nothing above and beneath the corseted kente belt.
A deceptiveness was achieved by plain, skin-coloured tights and hugging top to represent the bare-chestedness of the original Dipo participants.
