Africa Fashion Week Goes To Toronto

Africa Fashion Week Toronto
This year, Africa Fashion Week, AFWT debuts as a series of city-wide events that will attract, entertain, and educate on everything African fashion from August 15 – 18, 2013 at the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre, 6 Garamond Court in Toronto. The event opens on the first day with a red carpet cocktail reception in the evening while a student designer competition and runway shows will run on the days following that. I’m looking forward to all parts of the event especially the informative ‘Fashion Africa’ seminar and festive meet-n-greets.

 During the seminar, six panelists will discuss the future and business of the African fashion industry. Saturday and Sunday specifically, the runway will feature 20 African-inspired designers from around the world. There’ll be opportunities to buy your favourite things during the buyer’s and vendors market, which will be filled with all sorts of arts, crafts and fashion.
