AFRICA FASHION WEEK AMSTERDAM

Last year, the 29th-31st of August saw a new type of fashion event in the Netherlands. This was home to the first ever Africa Fashion Week Amsterdam (AFWA), which consisted of an interactive celebration of fashion, culture, music and talent within the World Fashion Centre, Amsterdam.

The event will take place for the second year from 27th to 30th August at an exclusive venue within Amsterdam.

´Many key figures from the Africa community have already confirmed their attendance such as award winning movie star Ramsey Nouah and several prominent business entrepreneurs.

5 FASHION ITEMS EVERY NIGERIAN LADY MUST HAVE

A lady’s wardrobe is an extension of her personality. Stocked with everything from essentials to frivolous knick knacks, it is equipped with everything that a lady needs for her armour. Kaymu’s Fashion Week showcases must-haves for the Nigerian woman’s closet.

Red Lipstick

A rich red or burgundy shade of lipstick is something that you are most likely to find in any lady’s hand bag. Whether it is a casual brunch or a date after work, red lipstick can work wonders and change your look from casual to classy. Be sure to take note of your skin tone when buying your lipstick though. Luckily, there are many shades of red to go around, so go for it!

Pastel Shirt

A pastel or white shirt is one of those evergreen classics which will never go out of style. This too can be versatile and can help you work the look in an office environment or even a casual night out. Most women prefer a blouse which is slightly fitted because something that is too loose could make you look boxy and that’s definitely something you do not want!

Trusty Heels

The term ‘killer heels’ are a cliche for a good reason. A pair of heels can absolutely transform any outfit that a lady may choose to wear. Whether it’s a business meeting or a night out in the town, nothing helps boost confidence like a pair of heels! The best heels strike a balance between balance and comfort and at the same time manage to add the extra oomph!
