“Don’t let clients tell you what to do” – Veekee James weighs in on the Nana Akuaddo AMVCA dress saga

Newly wedded fashion designer Veekee James has stepped into the chatroom of the Nana Akaaudo AMVCA dress saga, and she had a few words of advice for fashion designers.

“I don’t know anything about the issue going round on social media so I can’t really speak on it! Here’s my advise as someone who has been there done that

1) Once anyone comes to you with the ‘Do you want money or tag’ phrase, You better run! I’ve had so many of your faves both in this country and abroad, use that phrase with me and that was it! Today some of these people will give anything to be in my piece! No It just shows no respect or regard for your brand! Once you allow that, it confirms the fact that your brand has no values whatsoever!

2)Be Wise! Don’t let money come first before the important things! Sacrifice in business is a must! As long as you have made glaring the values of your brand, be ready to collaborate sometimes only with celebs who respect you as well! Never forget that it’s a win win for you and the celeb! No one is doing you a favour!

3)Don’t be desperate to be known through a person! You must know that only God is the LIFTER of Men! He will use only the people He chooses to lift you! Don’t try to do what only God can do for your brand! Don’t expect publicity from every celebrity and make desperate decisions without thinking!

4) If you want to be a Fashion Designer, go and research the true meaning of bring a designer! So that you don’t end up being a tailor parading him or herself as a designer! If you are a designer, do the work of a designer! You are an artist! Create! Don’t let clients tell you what to do and you just sit still with no creative input! These are values you must not take for granted!

Today, no man born of a woman can say that they made the Veekee James brand! No man can take God’s glory when it comes to my brand! My growth has been evidently nothing short of God’s Grace!

I can go on and on but I’ll stop with this & The same celebrities who refuse to tag you, will pay the high end brands and tag them 10 times! What can you make of that? Everyone wants to be associated with greatness.

Start working on getting your values up, keep your gaze on the most high God and the rest will be history!”
