AfriKin Fashion: Resistance on the Runway
Dec 07, 2025
Starting: 6:00 PM
Heritage and fashion merge in a dynamic runway showcase where designers from Africa and the diaspora present collections that honor resistance, resilience and beauty. Ancestral silhouettes meet avant-garde statements, with fabrics and forms that carry echoes of royal traditions and revolutionary spirit while looking toward the future.
AfriKin Fashion: Resistance on the Runway takes place Sunday, December 7 at the Scott Galvin Community Center, presented as part of AfriKin Art Fair 2025. Produced by Senegalese fashion designer Rama Diaw, the event pays tribute to the women of Nder, whose legendary act of defiance in 1820 continues to inspire. Each step on the runway becomes a ceremonial reclaiming of history, evoking the courage and legacy of the Walo Kingdom’s heroines.
