From a very young age, Ayissi often worked with his hands, and found that he was a better fit for a manual trades that involved both the use of his hands and his creative imagination. The son of a tailor, he decided to launch his fashion brand to fulfill his passions, follow his dream of becoming an entrepreneur and pay tribute to his father.
He went through professional training in Paris and specialized in the creation of uniquely designed tuxedo jackets — which has become the brand?s signature look. The first was created in 2013 under the Fly Tete collection, which he debuted at the Elysee Palace in Paris as a guest of the Ambassador of Cameroon to Paris.
The brand’s name is an adaptation of?Cameroon?s?Waza National Park?and the letter L?for?Lion,?which is the country’s national emblem.?Wazal Couture styles for men, with a little something for women under the?Wazalionne collection. But as the brand evolves, Ayissi?looks forward to developing a?collection that?will also focus on children.
