“Ahhhh..Fashion Week, I love you”
______________________________________________________________
First Barack Obama…Now this!
Four African labels — Xuly Bet by Malian designer Lamine Badian Kouyate, Tiffany Amber by Nigeria’s Folake Coker, Momo by Nigeria’s Fati Asibelua and Stoned Cherrie by South Africa’s Nkhensani Nkosi – all showed collections as part of The African Fashion Collective at Bryant Park. This is HUGE for Fashion Week!!!
The African Fashion Collective was an amazing effort and a first for New York Fashion Week. I was front and center and snapped shots of my personal favorites. I was also extremely fortunate (Thanks to Farai and Saran a.k.a. The African Connection) to go backstage and get exclusive shots with some of the most beautiful models you will ever see.
Here I am front and center with “The African Connection”. These ladies rock. Saran Kaba Jones, the beauty in the Herve Leger dress, is spearheading Boston Fashion Week. Details to follow very soon. Farai Gundan, the lovely lady in the middle, is the “woman”. Check out her celebrity coverage on BlackTree TV.

Its Fashion Week baby and my excitement CAN NOT be contained.
