AFRICAN FASHION AWARDS + TRUE LOVE

Ok, as it seems, i was right when i said it indeed is the season for awards...the keep coming in day after day, from the MTN GHANA MUSIC AWARDS to AMAA now to AFRICAN FASHION AWARDS; so which would be next???

Personally, i love the glamour, the glitz and all the razzmatazz that comes with it but the part i dont usually look forward to is credibility, esoacially here in Africa, but am hoping that this year would be different for most awards here in Africa.
Taking its place right now is the A.F.A..

African fashion is quickly being recognized as style worth watching. The western world is taking notice and taking notes.The first and exclusive African Fashion Awards, a celebration recognizing and rewarding fashion designers from African and the African Diaspora for their contribution and excellence to the fashion industry, is scheduled to take place at the toney Cumberland Hotel in London on August 22, 2009.

This exclusive annual celebration aims to showcase the creative individuals that are largely ignored by the mainstream fashion industry and be a voice for African fashion designers.
