History

Her vision was to forge a definitive platform that would place African design talent firmly on the global fashion map, moving beyond mere spectacle to build a sustainable and inclusive industry. It is a mission rooted in empowerment—to discover, nurture, and propel a new generation of designers, ensuring the world recognizes the depth, innovation, and unparalleled creativity emanating from the continent. This is more than a fashion week; it is the dynamic engine room for the future of African design.
