Eccentric Ghanaian fashionista Richard Brown, popularly known as Osebo the Zara Man, has given the story behind the title \u201cThe Zara Man\u201d.<\/p>\n
He sat down with radio broadcaster Nana Romeo on Accra 100.5 FM, where he stated that he discovered the popular fashion retailer Zara when he was in Germany.<\/p>\n
He detailed how he fell in love with the brand due to their styles and the exquisite cuts of their clothes.<\/p>\n
He also added that he was responsible for introducing the Zara brand to many people, both in Ghana and Germany.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn the 90\u2019s, when I started dressing, Zara wasn\u2019t a popular brand. It was when I went to visit my brother in Germany that I discovered Zara. He had told me that he was going to Zara to buy jeans, and I asked who they were. So I went to their store with him, saw some of their products, and was amazed at their style, so I started patronizing them.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am even responsible for making the Zara brand popular in many circles. Many people did not know Zara, and I introduced it to many people,\u201d he revealed.<\/p>\n
According to Osebo, his habit of taking pictures after every round of shopping at Zara stores earned him the title \u201cZara Man.\u201d<\/p>\n
He claimed that many stores would also shut down the men\u2019s sections specifically for him to shop alone due to his reputation as a big spender.<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause I loved the brand so much, any time I finished shopping at one of their stores, I usually took pictures. That was when those in Ghana started calling me the \u201cZara Man.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI became so popular among their stores that whenever I go shopping there, they close down the men\u2019s section just for me to shop. Because I\u2019m big there. I can spend up to 50,000 Euros at a store,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
He explained that he does not get special discounts and perks for being a loyal customer, but he gets access to clothes in the stockroom, or \u201cLager,\u201d which are yet to be put in their showrooms.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe manager of that store would call me and invite me to the store. They would allow me access to their \u201cLager,\u201d where I can access some clothes before they are brought out to the showroom,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
