The programme billed to hold at the at the EUI Centre, also includes the ‘Future Designer Showcase’ for emerging creatives and the ‘Established Designers Showdown’, alongside a marketplace spotlighting the best of Port Harcourt and Nigeria’s fashion scene.
PHFW aims to drive decent work, entrepreneurship and sustainable fashion practices in line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. “Port Harcourt Fashion Week was built as a catalyst for jobs, skill development and meaningful industry growth,” said convener Ngozi Anyiam.
Supported in previous years by organisations including the British Council, NLNG, Tecno Mobile and MAC Cosmetics Africa, the platform continues to expand opportunities for designers and the State’s creative economy.
