Africa Fashion

Spanning iconic mid-20th century to contemporary creatives through photographs, textiles, music and the visual arts, Africa Fashion will explore the vitality and global impact of a fashion scene as dynamic and varied as the continent itself.

Contemporary African creatives are shifting the geography of global fashion. The vitality of the scene is irrepressible, its creativity limitless. Organised in conjunction with the V&A’s exhibition Africa Fashion (2nd July 2022-16th April 2023), this conference provides a forum for the sharing and exchange of knowledge around contemporary African fashions. The conference will take an interdisciplinary cross-cultural approach. Presentations will focus on fashion on and from the African continent from 19th century to today.
