Okay, first off, I am SOOOOO not a fashionista, lol! BUT I do love the art and fashion coming out of Africa. Arise Magazine put on a show at New York Fashion Week titled ‘Made in Africa Collective’ which featured seven African designers;  KLuK CGDT, Jewel by Lisa, Tsemaye Binitie, Pierre-Antoine Vettorello, Momo by Asibelua, Lanre da Silva Ajayi and Bunmi Koko. I found many of the designs to be absolutely beautiful, so I thought I’d share! What are your thoughts, ladies?
