Valerie Ka Founder and Organizer of Africa Fashion Up

 

Created at the initiative of Valerie Ka, international top model, Africa Fashion Up is conceived as both a program and a fashion show whose aim is to accompany the contemporary African fashion in full effervescence.
This edition was supported by Balenciaga, Binance Charity, Galeries Lafayette Paris Haussmann, Sisley and HEC Paris, partners, and on the media side by Trace, Brut, France Médias Monde, Brune magazine and 35°Nord.

 

Imagined and orchestrated by the model Valerie Ka, the Africa Fashion Up is the first international event highlighting young designers from the Continent, selected during a competition by a jury of experts and fashion personalities.

A call for applications was launched last April, inviting young designers from Africa and its diasporas to participate in a fashion show and a training program in Paris. More than 90 candidates from twenty countries registered online and five of them were qualified.
