These young talents hail from various regions of Africa and its diasporas. Their bold creations, as well as their craftsmanship, captivated a prestigious jury. The next steps: a week of training in Paris, culminating in a grand runway show scheduled for July 7th at the Musée du Quai Branly – Jacques Chirac.

Alongside the 2023 winner, other talented designers presented several pieces from their collections, including Yonael Marga (Ethiopia), Ibrahim Tadju (Nigeria)Shamyra Moodley (South Africa) and Jafaru Larry (Ghana)Designers Eric Raisina (Madagascar) and Guy Fabrice « Zaady » (Côte d’Ivoire), both winners of the first edition of AFUP, also enriched the show as special guests.

The event, designed by sculptor/plastic artist Junior Fritz Jacquet, featured outstanding performances by dancer Yann Antonio and rapper Passi, accompanied by Ortiz. It was followed by a sumptuous gala dinner at the museum.
