FEATURED WORK




Over the past year, I have had the opportunity to have my work shown in Columbus Fashion Week, worn at Berlin Fashion Week, AfroPunk Paris, styling ecommerce and lookbook photoshoots for both EXPRESS and Maison De Papillon,  and have been featured in the London based online publication, Madam Blue. Below is an array of projects
I have had the pleasure of being a part of. All clothing featured are designed and sewn by Gabrielle Nti.




<<PROJECT 001>>

  I was selected to be a featured designer in the Fashion Talks fashion show this past Juneteenth and the Cleveland Museum of Art for the launchigng of the second edition of the Black Vanguard. Itwas truly an honor and unforgettable experience to show my thesis collection, GOLD COAST GLORY on a live runway a year later after having only virtual appointments and viewings. Items were purchased directly off the runway. All looks pictured were constructed, draped, sewn, and designed by me, including all of the printed fabrics.
























<<PROJECT 002>>

LOCATION.........COLUMBUS,OH,USA
DESIGNER.........GABRIELLE NTI
CREATIVE DIRECTION..GABRIELLE NTI
PHOTOGRAPHER.....WYZEART

MODEL............GENEVIEVE EFFA 

   I was given full design freedom for this photoshoot. I combined traditional African textiles with metallic tulle. The female’s two-piece set was designed to give the illusion of a skirt when standing together. In actuality it was a layered wide leg pant. The male outfit was a high waist paper bag pant with pleats along the waist. It came with a matching chest band and a v-neck shirt made of black scuba fabric.
