All is now set for the Africa Kids and Fashion week 2016 taking place in Lagos from December 9 to 11, 2016.
The African Kids and Teens Fashion Week is an event created to showcase the best of African fashion for kids and teenagers and it also gives talented designers a platform to showcase their design, promote their brands and raise their visibility on a global fashion stage, teaching the children and members of the society the beauty and value of our cultural heritage.
The event, packaged by SmartCode Africa, is aimed at showcasing promoting the best of African fashion for kids and teenagers and also projects the African fashion industry for kids and teenagers to the world.
The African Kids and Teens Fashion Week 2016 will be a 3-day event starting with a fashion summit to be held at the Ibis Hotel in Ikeja, Lagos. The second day will be a media parley while the third day will be the fashion show proper.
Exhibition for designers and companies with products that center on kids and teenagers will be held on the same day of the fashion show which is December 11, 2016.
At the fashion show, organizers will provide a platform for African designers in the kids and teens fashion industry to showcase their outfits.
Apart from wonderful African designs that would be on display on the run way, brands will have the opportunity to meet with customers directly so as to market and sell their products at the exhibition stand.
Celebrity guests from the entertainment circle will also be part of this year’s fashion week, the organizers said.
During a brief briefing held recently, Ajibola Akande, the Creative Director SmartCode Africa and the Organizer of AKTFW said, “Teaching our children the beauty and value of our heritage, preparing them to be confident individuals is what we are after.”
