From Liberia To The World: A Connoisseur Of The Continent'
Forbes Africa|June - July 2023
After a long and stressful but successful debut at Paris Fashion Week and becoming one of the few designers from Africa to do so, Aryea Kolubah is holidaying in Jamaica when she sits down for this Zoom interview with FORBES AFRICA.
From Liberia To The World: A Connoisseur Of The Continent'

Her eccentric and bold designs wowed the fashion stage in March, and you can tell that her "vibe" is inspired by her West African roots, which translates to bright ethnic prints and vibrant colors to create sartorial statements for the fearless and confident woman.

This is all done with very some specific messaging.

"I'm such a connoisseur of art but also I am such a connoisseur of the continent, and I take that show with me everywhere," Kolubah says. "...Being from Africa, [there's so much art that's being stolen]... but yet still, we are fighting to find our place in the art and entertainment space. And I'm just so fortunate that I am at a pivotal time in my life where I can contribute to society's demands."
