Designer Spotlight: Dzogbefa — Where Fashion Meets Purpose (interview)
Each year, The Hague African Festival selects a fashion designer whose work reflects the festival’s core values of creativity, community, and cultural pride. For this year’s edition, we are proud to present Dzogbefa, a Ghanaian fashion label that goes far beyond the runway. We sat down with the founder of Dzogbefa, Hafianyo Kenneth, to discuss his vision, social mission, and what audiences can expect from his upcoming showcase at AfroBeats in the Park on August 3rd.
Fashion & Creative Vision
How would you describe Dzogbefa’s design philosophy? What story do your collections aim to tell?
“Thank you to The Hague African Festival for this opportunity. First, Dzogbefa means Goodluck and Peace in Ewe, a dialect from the Volta Region of Ghana. Our design philosophy is rooted in storytelling through fabric and form. We celebrate African heritage by blending traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design. Our collections speak to themes of resilience, identity, and unity, with bold colors and symbolic patterns that invite self-expression.”
