AFRICAN FASHION COMES TO LIGHT AS SEASON 3 OF 'FASHIONMIST' SPOTLIGHTS EMERGING DESIGNERS

Season 3 of our Annual Exhibition /Showcase event is here. Fashionmist’s aim is to showcase on one platform emerging designers of African origin who reflect the continent’s creativity and the use of African textiles in their products to infuse it with a modern flair. We seek to create a network for the designers to interact and inspire all Fashionista’s in attendance.

You-tube makeup guru Miss Chanel Boateng (www.chanelboateng.com) will be hosting a seminar during the exhibition. This will be a combination of her You-tube tutorials, beauty and style tips as well as some insight into how she got started in the industry.

Together with Rachel we hope to raise funds on the day for our chosen charity WAM Campaign (www.wamcampaign.org). W.A.M (What About Me!) is an initiative aimed at providing young people with exciting creative platforms to contribute to the lives of orphans and vulnerable children living in Ghana. Raffles will be held all through the day with proceeds going to the charity. Labels such as Beautella will be providing raffle prizes.
