THE international model carrying ACCRA everywhere SHE GOES.

Dede Mansro is not just a model; she stands as a symbol of resilience, pride, and the global influence of Ghanaian culture. For the past nine years, Dede has lived in New York City, the heart of fashion, but her roots in Accra have remained her compass. Her journey from the bustling streets of Ghana’s capital to the runways of Paris to New York and the rest of the world proves her exceptional talent and drive.

Having walked for high-fashion brands like Jacquemus and Off-White, and gracing the covers of Vogue, Dede's success reflects not just her skillfulness as a model but also the story of a young woman who carries the Ghanaian city of Accra with her wherever she goes. Her exceptional style and striking beauty with her signatures slick back cornrows and occasional afro, deeply influenced by her Ghanaian heritage, make her a standout in the fashion industry.

Beyond the runway, Dede’s influence extends further than fashion. She’s appeared in music videos alongside iconic American rappers like Snoop Dogg and Fabolous, further cementing her place in pop culture. Whether it’s through fashion or music, Dede represents a blend of worlds — the Ghanaian influence she was raised with and the global platform she now commands.

But it’s her deep connection to her homeland that sets Dede apart. Her sense of identity, shaped by the energy, color, and culture of Accra, gives her a distinct presence on international stages. She continues to inspire a new generation of young Ghanaian creatives, showing them that no dream is too big, and no background too small, to succeed on the world stage.
