THE COUNT DOWN HAS BEGAN FOR AFRICAN FASHION WEEK LONDON

Calling All African Fashionistas around the world to the BIGGEST, MOST INNOVATIVE AFRICAN FASHION EVENT of THE YEAR in the UK.

The third edition of Africa Fashion Week London (AFWL) is set to return 1-4 August 2013 and there is just one month to go! In a bid to grow bigger, #AFWL has not only expanded to three days but also moved to a bigger venue, Old Truman Brewery, in Shoreditch, London.

This year’s event is set to see 100 designers on the runway and over 100 exhibitors spread across Old Truman Brewery’s massive indoor space, once again making #AFWL the biggest fashion event across Europe showcasing African and African-inspired fashion.

Another important change for Africa Fashion Week London comes in the form of two patrons this year, Princess Fifi Ejindu, the Nigeria-based architect and businesswoman and Yinka Shonibare MBE, the London-based globally celebrated Nigerian fine artist.
