My Fashion Sense Is Influenced By 'Chokor' - Stephen Appiah

Former Ghana skipper, Stephen Appiah has said his fashion sense is influenced by Chorkor, where he grew up in Accra.

Stephen Appiah explained that while growing up in the poverty-stricken Chorkor community he used to go to Kantamanto with a little amount of money and make the most out of it by getting good clothing for himself.

“During my Chorkor days, we (used) go to Kantamanto, with the small money that we earn on the streets we try to do something with it when it comes to dressing”, Appiah told Joy Sports.

“I always say that when it comes to fashion, everybody knows how to dress because nobody goes out naked.”

“For me, it’s all about the character that is why you see certain people wearing pink trousers and pink shirts. It’s not everybody who can rock those colours. So its character and it started from Chorkor days,” he concluded.

Stephen Appiah is one of the Ghanaian players with a taste for good clothing and has therefore carved a niche for himself as a fashionista.
