Africa Fashion Week 2010

This year, all eyes on South Africa !

Everyone is aware of what's going on out there in the continent.. Don't you ?! Yes, I mean the FIFA World Cup ! And that's the moment they chose to organize Africa Fashion Week in Jo'burg, from June 30th to July 3rd.


First day was off the hook, as it featured noted designers Xuly Bët (Mali), Sakina M'sa (Comoria), David Tlale (South Africa), Ituen Basi and Deola Sagoe (Nigeria). Peep the pics !

David Tlale and his silk and muslin made creations, reminding me of Carnival costumes (that Arlequin-ish outfit, the princess's one, the long tutu, the eye make-up.. I'm not crazy, am I ?!)..




Sakina M'sa and her modern graphics designs..




Xuly Bët and his Grace Jone-esque collection. Liking everything he does ! Article to come.




The meaning of elegance by queen designer Deola Sagoe. Gorgeous !




Ituen Basi presented an explosive mix of Ankara prints and the 60s designs.




To be continued, for sure !
