Our favorite looks from Africa Fashion Week London 2015

ABOUT AFWL

Created by Ronke Ademiluyi, Africa Fashion Week London (AFWL) is Europe’s largest catwalk event of African and African-inspired design.

A collaborative catwalk and exhibition, highlighting the industry’s established and emerged African designers, AFWL is at the forefront of capturing the surge of the African inspired trends in the fashion industry. Our annual event aims to celebrate the work of African and African inspired designers in the UK and worldwide.

The Theme for AFWL 2015 is APPRENTICE & SKILL EMPOWERMENT”.

As part of our Youth Development Initiative for the Fashion Business industry, we will be nominating apprentices within the fashion industry that will be Tourism Ambassadors who will be mentored by different Fashion designers from all over the world for a rare opportunity to be on AFWL 2016 next year based on excellent performance index.

Design by AAUGUST AAugust is an upcoming brand that was created by Emalda Mbulo and Suwilanji Katuka who have both recently graduated in Fashion and Textiles. The combinations of African print, textile techniques and fine tailoring have been a part of their inspiration; giving them the insight to work with both men and women’s wear. “Born in Zambia and relocating to England at a young age gave us a chance to embrace our culture in everything we do|. Their brand is currently based in the UK. ‘Their brand philosophy is “Fashion is born of instinct; it’s how you want the world to view you”… Emalda Mbulo and Suwilanji Katuka. #Zambia #africanprint #afwl2015 #afwl #ankara #africanwear #fashion #fashionable #fashionblog #fashionista #fashionblogger #africa #african #africanpride #africanwear #bestofafrica #africanwoman #michaeltubes #michaeltubescreations #beauty
