Mboko Basiami, who had a passion to work in the fashion industry as a little child in Sebina, is now living that dream thanks to an invitation she received that will allow her brand, 'Glotto', to debut on the international stage at the New York Fashion Week.

The event is slated to take place on September 10 at Sony Hall in New York City. Basiami, who is the creative director and founder of Glotto, revealed to Arts & Culture that her childhood dream was to conquer the fashion industry.

Whilst the industry is widely regarded in the country, Basiami stated that she never settled to sell herself short when it comes to her passion and she is grateful that she is now reaping the fruits of her hard labour. “I have always dreamed of this moment when I started my brand five years ago.

Basiami stated that she could not contain herself and was overwhelmed by emotions when she received this potentially life-changing invite.
