The Nigerian Fashion Week is Nigeria’s foremost, annual
fashion event that attracts designers, tourists, buyers, media, luxury brands,
fashion organizations and fashion lovers from the world over. Every November,
the world converges in Lagos, Nigeria to witness this epoch-making event.
With well over one hundred and sixty million (160,000,000) people, Nigeria is
not only the most populous nation in Africa, it also has developed and
maintained the largest market for fashion and luxury brands. The Nigeria
Fashion Week provides the world the opportunity of taking advantage of this
market.
The Nigeria Fashion Week has continuously provided the platform for Nigerian designers to rediscover themselves and make success of their creative talents. The fashion week has been able to reorient Nigerian designers to look inward for inspiration by using locally made fabrics and accessories to produce range with global appeal.
The calendar for this year’s fashion week begins on Wednesday, 7th November, when there will be a convergence of stakeholders at the M-Gallery, The Moorhouse Hotel (former Sofitel), Ikoyi, Lagos Nigeria. The opening event, titled NFW Networking Cocktail will be a meeting of all our media partners, designers, executives of the World Fashion Organization, including its president, Paco De Jaimes. There shall also be buyers from around the world, including Sidney, Toronto, Milan, Paris and New York. Also, representatives of luxury fashion brands like Versace, Issey Miyake, etc, as well as the CEO, Legendary Gold Ltd, Lexy Mojo-Eyes will be on ground. It will be an opportunity for the media to have interactive sessions with these fashion giants. At the end, there will be group photographs at different levels for the NFW Library. This will be an exclusive meeting of just 150 individuals of the fashion world. An invitation shall be forwarded to you subsequently.
The Fashion Week proper begins on Thursday, 8th November, and ends on Saturday, 10th November, with two fashion shows for each day. The event will hold at The MUSON Centre, Onikan Lagos.
Following the success of the NFW 2011 Going Green initiative, we decided to create a bigger platform for eco-fashion, or sustainable fashion as it is also called- during this year’s event.
Therefore, in order to achieve our goal of increasing awareness about this theme, NFW 2012 “Going Green 2” will be featuring:
1- A ‘Going Green Collection’
2- An awareness walk and tree planting exercise. In addition, guests attending the “Going Green” show will be expected to wear clothes made from recycled or/and environmentally friendly materials. A list of designers specialized in eco-fashion will be available for purchase of outfits.
