AFRICAN FASHION FOLKTALES

Celebrating the transformative power of Fashion. The African Fashion Renaissance starts with introspection. Craft mastery and sustainable materials become mediums for the reclaiming of ancestral stories. Through interweaving these tales of our past we re-imagine our future. From individual expression to the collective consciousness, fashion has the power to shift and shape future generations.
