Recently, I sat down with Diana Tambe and her business partner, Aydin Acik in a 30-minute interview.
At a very young age, Cameroon-born Diana Tambe migrated alongside her mother to Helmod, The Netherlands. Diana has now grown into a creative fashion designer and an events organizer with an unending passion for African fashion. She is the CEO of Blackpearl Secret and the Creative Director of Africa Fashion Week Amsterdam. According to Diana, ”There is a need to celebrate the culture, arts and fashion of Africa in Amsterdam.”
Aydin on the other hand, originally from Turkey, has been in the fashion business for decades. He also started out as a model and has now built a reputation for himself as ‘The Fashion Man’.
Listen to what they both had to say about their drive and plans for the future.
