Harper's Bazaar features Adwoa Aboah

“The other day my sister reminded me of a photo taken somewhere within the first year of my sobriety, and I remember feeling really stunning,” #AdwoaAboah tells our digital director @nikkiogun. “It wasn’t about my outfit. It had nothing to do with external validation. It came from inside, as cheesy as that sounds. I felt beautiful because I felt happy.” In our May issue, five of fashion’s most exciting faces including @PreciousLeexoxo, @RianneVanRompaey, @HaileyBieber, @LiuWenlw, and @AdwoaAboah share their perspectives on identity, influence, and beauty.
