It is becoming a new trend, as young people now make and re­ceive calls, send messages, listen to music, monitor their health among others with a smartwatch.

A smartwatch is a mobile device with a touch screen display, de­signed to be worn on the wrist.

The main benefit of a smartwatch is that it keeps a person constantly updated without having to whip out a phone at inconvenient places.

With the advancement in tech­nology, a smartwatch is worth it if you need thehands-free func­tionalities and features it offers. A smart watch can make one’s life easier if the person has an active lifestyle and requires mobility. This is because it allows you to engage in activities that make carrying a smartphone inconvenient.

You do not need a sim card or internet to be able to use it. All you need is to connect it to your smart­phone via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi with a battery life long enough to get you through a full day when fully charged.

Final-year students of the Accra Technical University (ATU) Department of Fashion Design and Textile Technology  on Friday showcased their creativity and craftsmanship in Accra.

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.
