How Model Adesuwa Aighewi Spends a Day In Accra | Model Diaries | British Vogue

Model, creative and businesswoman Adesuwa Aighewi invites us to join her on a typical day in the Ghanian capital of Accra in British Vogue's Model Diaries. After taking a break from modelling, Aighewi starts the day off bright and early with 6am meditation to channel her inner 'jedi' before enjoying a nutritious breakfast, essential fuel for a busy day. The model and former NASA intern then ventures out into the bustling city, making a bee-line towards her favourite art market, a prime spot for hunting antiques. In between sampling all the colourful art and flavours that the city has to offer, Aighewi explains the meaning behind her Legacy Project, before checking in on her own Queen art installation, located pride of place on the shore of Osikan beach.

As a TOOL fan, seeing ALEX'S GRAY artwork on that shirt made me feel proud. If you dont know the band, CHECK EM' OUT PEOPLE :) PS: I love Adesuwa, CHARISMA, UNIQUENESS, NERVE AND TALENT RIGHT THERE.

I am so proud of her. She is my tribe. I respect the way she is proud of where she is from. The statue of Queen Idia is here too. I wish her greater heights

[@zeezona939]

A lot of persons saying she Ghana .. just you know she is Nigerian from Benin city edo state... yet she decided to do this in Ghana representing Africa at large ... where are those angry about Nigerians winning global awards and not Ghanaians this should teach you love and don’t forget we are all one save that

She is so cool and beautiful!! Last year was the first time i have seen a video of her on youtube! I thought she was like 21 and then i found out she is 33 ! Wow she looks so much younger and her skin is flawless.. such a cool spirit

[@trvcxi]

I spent new years in Accra for the year of the return and I vowed to live there some day. the pandemic derailed that plan, this video put me back on it. Bumaye Adesuwa!

[@moonbuns98]

Is anyone else in love right now? When she gave that last look to the camera, I melted...

[@JAytch2010]

😩😍😍😍

[@TheCinnamondemon]

shes so cool, i was a bit confused about her age at first bc she has an older confidence and appearance but has a very youthful personality and voice

[@c4test]

I love the fact that she's so carefree and just be herself and doesn't bother to fit in with the beauty standards that are set by society.

[@nidzbehonest]

Her laugh omg!!✨✨✨✨ BEAUTIFUL😍

I have 0 aspirations to become a Model but I love Models these Model Diaries give me life! Love it Vogue.

[@heathbar8015]

They're so good! But yeah I must say, model life doesn't look so appealing. Flying all the time, being jetlagged and tired, being around a ton of people and chaos, having to always look put together... To me, it actually looks very stressful 😅

[@amagovernor]

Arghhhh WE LOVE TO SEE IT!!!! 🇬🇭

[@EsiKokui]

Love that Vogue is showcasing Ghana

[@amorkor4]

Beautiful woman with a down to earth vibe. She's seems at home in very local places as well as more upmarket places. No airs or graces a out her. Nice

Finding old antiques is another way of saying items stolen from graves, mausoleums. Oppressed people rely on pirating, smuggling, stolen items sold on illegal black market
