Guests will enjoy a three-course dinner followed by a fashion presentation as well as a special collaborative tribute to Nelson Mandela by ((blackstereo)) and Afridyssey.

This season also spells the first year anniversary of Africa Fashion Day Berlin. Showcasing designers are Namibia’s Young-Designer-of-the-Year-2013 winner Nicola Konradie, British Vogue’s new-designer-to-watch Sarah Ama Duah (Hamburg), award-winning Adama Paris (Senegal) and jewellery designer Kim Riedel (Bahamas). Befitting for an anniversary there should be a first and Africa Fashion Day Berlin will present trailblazing menswear designer BSB (Portugal/Guinea Bissau), who came into the spotlight with Udo Lindenberg wearing his suits. It will hopefully make way for more menswear designers on this unique platform.
