IMANE AYISSI

COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: Cameroon

Leaving Cameroon in 1992 to settle in France, Imane Ayissi has just been selected as a guest member in the very prestigious official calendar of Parisian haute couture in January 2020.  

The ex-model was the first designer of sub-Saharan origin to see the red carpet rolled out in this small, closed and hyper-select environment.

Its collections reflect the immense diversity of know-how on the black continent. Dancer for the National Ballet of Cameroon then model, it is in the styling that Imane Ayissi has finished revealing herself. For twenty-two years, the Franco-Cameroonian designer has presented his collections at Parisian fashion shows.
