AFROPOLITAN FESTIVAL 2019
This is an immersive fashion pop-up which celebrates Afropolitan creativity in contemporary fashion, design and lifestyle from Belgium, Europe and Africa.
The New African Wave non-profit collective (NAW) invites you to a new style of alternative makers’ market and projects which break down stereotypes surrounding African fashion and culture. Friends and social entrepreneurs, Siré Kaba and Valia Ndelela, are behind the event. NAW brings together talented people to engage with their aims. Their motto is co-creation, innovation and deconstruction because Africa is NAW!
