• Crocs can also be worn with socks

Have you come across the new fancy crocs?

The footwear which used to be the love of most healthcare workers has now become a fashion trend.

Crocs are made of costile, uniquely designed to be light weighted, soft and comfortable, non-marking and odor resistant, easy for one to slip the foot in and out of.

Fashion experts designed this footwear with ornaments including brand names like “Dolce &Gabba­na” making it fit to wear for differ­ent occasions.

Interestingly, this comfortable and cozy footwear has come to replace “chalewote” as one can stylishly dress up or down with it to infor­mal events. It comes in a variety of types, designs and sizes suitable for kids, youth and adults.

These fashionable crocs can be worn in many ways according to one’s fashion sense and can last for three to five years if worn less with proper care. Take delight in wear­ing slim-cut pant to show-case the design of your crocs, match your crocs to your bags or pair a colour­ful crocs with a plain white dress and you are good to go.

The annual event held under the theme: ‘Wear Your Culture: Tradition Meets Modernity,’ saw 366 students showcased various designs as part of their final year practical work.

Dean of the Faculty of Applied Arts, Professor George Agyei Osei, explained that the exhibition provided students with an opportunity to demonstrate the skills and competencies they have acquired throughout their training.

Vice Dean of the Faculty of Arts and former Head of Department of Fashion  and Textile Technology, Dr Mrs Emma Donkor, said this year’s cohort comprised 366 students, with each student producing four designs, one of which was exhibited at the school’s auditorium while three were presented during the fashion show.

Mrs Donkor encouraged graduating students to build their businesses gradually, noting that a sewing machine and a small workspace could provide the foundation for a successful fashion enterprise.

One of the graduating students, Philipa Adu, said the theme was a reminder to designers not to blindly imitate Western fashion at the expense of African culture.
