Some of you may remember our first ever Designer’s Spotlight post featuring the talented Samata Angel. As we mentioned in the spotlight post, Samata was the first black British female designer to be featured this week during Nolcha Fashion Week.

The Samata’s Muse collection was a big hit at the event and she was even interviewed by Vogue Magazine about it. That’s big! You can check out a few shots from her debut at Nolcha Fashion Week after the cut. CONGRATS SAMATA!!

  26. somto

  27. Its not me but I cannot knock the girl’s hussle. Go get them Samatha!

  28. jaycads

    Vogue is MASSIVE. She is really attractive. She African though? She doesn;t look it at all.

  29. Cole Mic

    She is probably building her brand – she is marketable on her own or with her business. BIG UP LONDON!

  30. Cole Mic

    She is a brand basically. Marketable and with products. She should look into creating an agency or something like that.

  31. charlee

    @ # 17 yea she african she from GHANA. big ups to my fellow ghanians!!! thats whats up?… loving that green dress, would diff rock that. keep up ur the good work gurl!

  32. dee dee

    The white dress looks like something my sister used to make out of bed sheets when we were little.

  33. Tandi

    Why doesn’t she look African? Because she is pretty? Or is she too light?

  34. Yemisi

    Love it all. White dres is lovely – floaty and yeah does kind of look like a sheet! Lol! She is talented however you look at it. She is doing it big here in London.

    I understand why she doesnt look African through – especially in the last picture – she looks more Indian-Black to me but African are stunning and she proves that much.

    Let’s try to support one of our own! I just voted!

  35. Private

    Outfit in the last picture of her is mad sexy…

    LMAO @ her black peeps grinning so hard. Black people know how to party

    Good luck to her. Fashion biz is not easy…..

  36. Dashy

    Big up Concrete Loop.

  37. Solstarr

    I would rock any of those dresses! I also appreciate the fact that none of those models are anorexic. They look healthy! Doing big things Samata!

  38. I want that dress Samata has on….

  39. Ladeyesman

    I want both of the dresses she has on! She is gorgeous! There is hope for Black icons?

  46. I agree that green dress she has on is VERY nice.

  47. Umfufusman

    If they are in Africa like her – I am there. She just put Ghana on the map as far I am concerned. Big up Concrete Loop – you did it once again.

    I hope she don’t start doing videos tho…..

    Pic of her walking away is nice………………………………………………………..

    As for African generally – damn umfufu’s……lol

  48. The clothes are alright, nothing I haven’t seen any other underground designer do (why all the clubwear? I have yet to see an indie designer bridge the gap between either doing bridal-/evening-wear or doing casual/clubwear), but there aren’t too many black people making waves in the fashion industry that are non-singers/entertainers.

  49. Gunotchick

    I think it is good to have your eggs in more than one basket to be honest. I don’t know too much about fashion but I would wear all this stuff either out, to the office or shopping. Can’t be bad right? Big up Samata. Love her in the blue dress – dazzling smile ma’!

  50. whatever15

    Its so sad that if a black woman is pretty her beauty is attributed to some other ethnicity. If you knew anything about WAfrica you would know where she came from immediately from her face and body.

  51. SheSoCrazy

    OMG I NEEEEEEED that dress Samantha has on.

  52. SheSoCrazy

    *SAMATA* oppppzzzz

  53. audra

  54. DarkCoffee

    Ms. Thang is doing it big. Like McDonalds, im loving it.

  55. charlee

    African beauty, better recognize

  56. Devan

    There is something about her.Star quality – you want to keep looking at her.
