Fashion Show And Parade

African fashion is unique in style, color as it is dynamic, and it evolves overtime without losing the cultural flavor that makes it appealing to the outside world. That is why African Fashion is always the center piece of ACAN. African fashion is not rigid, it is flexible to accommodate decades of colonial influence and yet maintains its cultural tone.  Fashion show and parade will showcase the different dimensions of African fashion: from the north, from the west coast, from the East (safari fashion) from the central (Congo designs) and from the South.
