Cameroon is gradually innovating and establishing itself as the fashion hub of the Central African sub-region. The flagship event of this hub is ofcourse the Annual Show Fashion Week 2014, which is the first fashion festival in Cameroon, aiming at becoming the first sub-Sahara African festival of style and fashion for black models.
In this year's event which has already started, Designers, model and African artists from Abidjan, Dakar, Douala, Yaoundé and France; just to name a few, have started converging in Douala so as to put on a one of kind show. Throughout this week, Douala will experience a buoyancy that will spread even beyond the national borders via international media coverage.
The presence of media outlets such as Fashion TV UK, CCTV, France 24, Africa Magic and rfi not to forget bloggers at this years event will propel Cameroon as the centre for the renaissance of Africa fashion strongly influenced by its culture.
Hosted at the luxurious St. Johns Plaza, the 7th edition of the Annual Show Fashion Week is enhanced by many sponsoring partnerships like: MTN Cameroon, Tangui, Camair-Co; just to name a few.
Grégroire Piwelé, who is a great supporter and promoter of this event and of fashion in the sub-region, as well as his team are braving numerous challenges so that the festival finally becomes annual just as its name suggest.
