Regardless of where you stand concerning the fashion landscape in Africa, it’s safe to admit that the fashion industry has immense potential. Some leading names in the fashion industry such as Mai Atafo have reiterated that the Nigerian fashion scene is a viable industry as Access Bank partnered with Design Fashion Africa (DFA) from October 3-5, 2019 to bring together some of the most talented designers in the fashion underground scene.
The night of the finale, hosted by Idia Aisien alongside Eso Okolocha, featured an exciting runway, where various models graced it wearing some beautifully designed clothes. The show was themed Africa: The Runway of the World and was decorated to match this theme with an ambience which felt wholly African and very original. All the attendees were pleasantly surprised at the level of creativity on display as designer after designer showcased awe-inspiring designs and clothing lines.
“It was impressive to see so many talented fashion designers under one roof. I hope this platform gives them the opportunity to take their craft to the next level.” Those were the remarks by Michael Eze, one of the attendees at the DFA showcase night.
With so many creative fashion pieces on display, it was, without doubt, an exciting night of style and this is a fine reminder of the immense potential of Africa’s burgeoning fashion industry. By sponsoring this event, Access Bank has reinforced its promise of more than banking.
