Valentina Duffour is revolutionizing Accra’s fashion scene with her innovative concept of “wearable art” under her brand, Artphits.
Combining her passion for fashion, music, and animation, the self-taught designer sources fabrics from Accra’s central market to create unique and creative designs that highlight the female form.
Starting as an artist, Valentina’s brand, Artphits, is a fusion of “art” and “outfit,” sparking conversations on social media with its striking designs and concepts.
Beyond just aesthetics, Artphits is also committed to sustainability by incorporating repurposed materials into some of its creations.
While specializing in custom pieces, Artphits has gained attention for everyday items like the Paisley tote bag and Tappie shorts/pants.
The brand has garnered recognition from various artists and public figures, including Freda Rhymz, Moliy, Majorskyscrapa, Martess of Perfect Match, and M. Martin Marvin.
In a country where unique fashion was not always a priority, Artphits aims to drive change in the industry. Valentina is working towards launching the brand’s first official collection, promising an exciting and bold new line to be anticipated by fashion enthusiasts.
From small-scale manufacturing to redefining Accra’s fashion trends, Valentina Duffour’s journey with Artphits reflects her passion and expertise in the industry.
