Two award winning Ghanaian male models, Ralph Tetteh and Stephen Owusu, have been featured on the online version of globally acclaimed fashion and lifestyle magazine, Vogue.

This follows their recent participation in this year’s ECOWAS Fashion Week in Nigeria.

The two models seem to have their careers soaring high this year, having walked the runways for awhile.

Earlier, they picked nominations at the last Ghana Models Awards. Ralph also won Ghana’s Male Model of the Year at the 2014 edition of Fashion Icon Award.

Their Vogue feature was courtesy their participation in the 2014 edition of ECOWAS Fashion Week, which was held at Oriental hotel in Victoria Island, Lagos State, Nigeria, in August.

The event was put together by Joan Okorodudu, CEO of Isis Models Africa & Arik air, to project Africa’s fashion industry globally.
