Cool African styles
Ok I must admit, it is hard to ignore the talent that comes out of Africa! I came across these cool designers from the African continent. If you have not checked out African Fashion week by bellanaija be sure to do so. Now that you all know my passion is fashion, check out these cool outfits by african designers!
Starting off the magical evening is Stoned Cherie.
"Stoned Cherrie, established in 2000, is an afro-urban lifestyle brand that is expressive of African urban culture in South Africa. Our vision is to become an African luxury lifestyle brand pioneering a fashion and Cultural Revolution in Africa. The brand was started in an effort to create a platform for self-expression, in a way that is truthful and that takes fashion out of the realm of pretence, emulation and frivolity." Can you say we love it?
Bongiwe Walaza ---Aziza
"Respected up-and-coming South African designer Bongiwe Walaza grew up in the small community of Mqanduli in the Eastern Cape. Her interest in arts & crafts and passion for making her own clothes was evident from an early age. She wanted to pursue a fashion career, but was limited by the lack of opportunities for black South Africans during Apartheid. She opted to study engineering instead, but eventually managed to study fashion at Natal Technikon. It was a dream come true, which was rewarded by a prize for her designs during her first year of studies."
We are glad bongiwe chose fashion? Thoughts?
