Koshie O was founded in 2010 by Ghanaian/Lebanese designer, Nina Baksmaty who was raised in Ghana, and now divides her time between New York and Ghana. Nina’s mother is a well-known Ghanaian designer and it is from her that Nina’s passion for fashion design grew. Spending much time in her mother’s shop and accompanying her on buying trips and attending fashion shows, Nina was immersed in the world of fashion design, gaining first-hand experience in the evolution process of creating clothes; and eventually going on to create her own label; Koshie O. Through Koshie O Nina seeks to combine African themes and design aesthetics with contemporary influences; and sources high-quality fabrics from around the world for her designs, which are produced by tailors, dressmakers, and artisans in Ghana.
