Stephen while in an interview with Accra based Joy FM, shared what influenced his ostentatious fashion and how he came to acquire such a renowned taste in fashion.
He explained that while growing up in the poverty-stricken Chorkor community he used to go to Kantamanto with a little amount of money and make the most out of it by getting good clothing for himself.
Adding that his fashion sense was influenced by the Chorkor community where he grew up
“During my Chorkor days, we (used) go to Kantamanto, with the small money that we earn on the streets we try to do something with it when it comes to dressing”, Appiah told Joy Sports.
“I always say that when it comes to fashion, everybody knows how to dress because nobody goes out naked.”
“For me, it’s all about character that is why you see certain people wearing pink trousers and pink shirts. It’s not everybody who can rock those colours. So its character and it started from Chorkor days” he concluded.

For years, fashion lovers were not interested in rocking denim on denim.
Today, however, the trend has evolved into one of the most fashionable and versatile looks on runways, city streets and social media.
Denim-on-denim styling involves pairing two or more denim pieces in a single outfit, such as a denim shirt with jeans, a denim jacket over a denim skirt, or even matching denim sets.
The trend has also become popular because of denim’s versatility. It can be dressed up with heels, jewellery and handbags, or styled casually with sneakers and simple accessories.
This flexibility makes denim-on-denim suitable for a variety of occasions, from weekend outings to casual workplace settings.
For those trying the trend for the first time, fashion stylists recommend starting with classic pieces. A well-fitted denim jacket and a pair of straight-leg jeans provide a simple foundation.
