Africa Fashion Week (New York)



Africa Fashion Week New York (AFNY), was started last year (2011) by Adirée, and literally heated up the US fashion capital of New York from Thursday July 14th to Saturday July 16th. Taking place at the Broad Street Ballroom located in New York City’s financial district, AFWNY 2011 hosted three days of runway showcasing international designers from the African Diaspora. After receiving an official proclamation from Mayor Bloomberg in its first year, AFWNY has been under good auspices to prosper in one of the world’s fashion capital.

Preceding the event, AFWNY has been featured in internationally acclaimed magazine and publications such as Elle Magazine, Bullet, and the Washington Post, to cite a few. Directed by Adiat Disu and produced by Adda Tidjani, AFWNY gives talented designers a platform to showcase their design, promote their brands and raise their visibility on a global fashion stage.
 
This year’s edition will be held on Thursday July 12,Friday July 13 & Saturday July 14 at the same venue.
2,000+ audience members will also witness the excitement and be a part of the cause.
