I used to call it foo foo shoop. (Foofoo/fufu being pounded yam and shoop being soup) Do you see yourself as fashionabl­e or stylish? I see myself as stylish, I try not to be too concerned about trends. I like to dress how I feel, everything I wear must feel like an expression/ statement. Don’t like being predictabl­e or looking like everyone else. Favourite saying. Everyday is a fashion show and the world is my runway.
