TGIFF: Thank God it’s Fashion Friday
I love seeing a new
idea trend take hold, inspiring new fashion trends and causing the older
fashion timelines to up their game. My first ever call-up to be a blogger for
an organization was by the prolific model agency- Strut It Afrika.
Though I did not
get the job; I was humbled and honored to have made the cut as being a blogger
they had thought of when looking to increase their social media presence. Now I
write from the other end.
The past month
heading to October; Strut It Afrika hosted the first ever regional fashion week
in African history. The theme: “Fashion, Art & Dance.” The
event, running from 20th September 0ctober 5th 2013; saw a
great fusion of fashion, art and dance.
It was also
Nairobi’s first ever fashion week. The event kicked off at the IMAX Cinema,
displaying an impressive array line-up of models and designers.
From photography
workshops to cocktail previews and art exhibitions; the event made a climax
stop at the Safari Park Hotel for the much anticipated fashion shows.
The fashion week
featured a packed program, showcasing 22 designers and 33 models from all over
Africa.
The week wouldn’t
be complete without the art exhibitions, dance performances and a lot of funky
parties.
