BACKSTAGE PAPS AT THE AFWL 2012- DAY 1

We say shame to bad people oooo. The 2nd annual Africa Fashion Week London has come and gone. And we are happy to tell all the naysayers that it was a resounding success no matter the yardsticks anyone might one to use to judge it. The organizers in the face of it all more than delivered, on the promises made. Though little improvements needed in some areas, it’s all part of the learning process. 

Already the media coverage after the show has been overwhelmingly fantastic. Financial Times of NY did a marvellous job, the Metro in the UK gave it fantastic review, it was written by Helen Jennings of Arise Magazine, it was immediately reported on BBC and it's even on their website, including BBC China with amazing pictures to the boot. Reporters came from far and near, including bloggers and fashion writers. It was a great success and we can only improve and so shall we. Next edition is at the Somerset House, the SOMERSET HOUSE. Yes!  It’s our next point of call, that's the home of the world renowned London Fashion Week. We dare say, 'Impossible is Nothing'.

Check out a few of the backstage paparazzi. This is where the whole show gets packaged. Make-up artists running around, hair-stylist holding the hair-sprays like guns, the main stylists running, shouting, arranging etc. Show producer in mad frenzy to deliver a picture perfect show. It's all a Crazy, manic world, but we love it!!! Don't worry oooo, we have the full runway showcase & the out and about all upcoming. Just enjoy this teaser first.
