Our Story

About AFROVOGUE

The search for the next icon of African couture — where heritage meets haute couture on a continental stage.

Where Heritage Meets Haute Couture

AFROVOGUE is a groundbreaking 12-week high-fashion reality competition that travels across the African continent. Each week, our designers face a new challenge inspired by the culture, history, and artistry of a different African city.

From Accra to Nairobi, Dakar to Lagos — contestants must design, create, and present collections that honour traditional African craftsmanship while pushing the boundaries of modern couture. One designer is eliminated each week until the Grand Finale, where the winner is crowned The Next Icon of African Couture.
