About FASHION | AFRICA | NOW

The Fashion Africa Now Podcast ignites interesting conversations with designers, creatives, historians, researchers, fashion players and industry experts on what fashion in Africa and the diaspora is today, systematically digging into its past, present and, more importantly, shaping its future. The fusion of rich and diverse sub-nations, cultures, ideas, and talents from the African continent, and by extension the African diaspora, has produced irresistible trend-setting fashion, styles, aesthetics, sounds and a way of life globally. Yet in the shadows of this allure the conflict between slow fashion, sustainability in Africa and fast fashion is a conversation to be encouraged.
