After weeks of leaving fashion fans in suspense, BEATWAVES can now affirm that some selected showbiz personalities who were invited to model at a fashion show dubbed ‘Rhythms On Da Runway’ have confirmed their participation.
The event, slated for this Saturday, March 31 at Golden Tulip, is being organized to outdoor ace broadcaster Kofi Okyere Darko’s NINETEEN57 Freedom collection.
Apart from the clothes on display, patrons will see music icons such as Reggie Rockstone, Kwaku T, Tinny, Asem, Kwaw Kese and  D-Black, as well as Chris Attoh, Senanu Gbedawu, Jon Germaine, boxing star Joseph Agbeko and personalities from corporate Ghana on the runway modelling  NINETEEN57 by KOD.
Other guest models include Miss Liberia 2011 and Mildred Akuba Edoukou, the just crowned Miss Ghana UK, with grooming by Jane Awoonor Williams of Spa 216.
The night will also see thrilling performances from seasoned Ghanaian musicians including the legendary Pat Thomas, Sarkodie, Bertha, Okyeame Kwame, Kwame Yeboah and the Ohia Beyeya Band, Kofi B, Steve Bedie, D’niece, Nana Yaa, Amandzeba and RnM, with Nigerian comedian Hogan entertaining the audience with rib-splitting jokes.
The event, which forms part of Ghana@55 celebrations, will be witnessed by senior members of government, members of the diplomatic corps, the business community and other prominent figures in the society.
KOD, who has carved a niche for himself in the arts, says it’s a must-attend show for all as we celebrate another feet in our country’s life. In just a couple of years since he took up fashion seriously, KOD has already designed clothes for prominent figures including Presidents Mills and Rawlings, Jamaican Reggae star Buju Banton, Michael Essien, Emmanuel Adebayo, respected movie director Ivan Quashiga, Roland Agambire of RLG Communications among others.
The event, which is sponsored by MTN, Jaguar and RLG, will start at 7:00pm with a yellow carpet treat and cocktail before the stars hit the runway.
