An innovative partnership that will change Fashion's landscape in Africa.
QASIMI RISING is thrilled to announce a dynamic new partnership with Lagos Fashion Week, set to spotlight and elevate emerging designers and creatives across Africa. This collaboration is driven by a shared vision to uncover the continent’s hidden gems and bring their talents to the forefront of the global fashion scene.
As part of this initiative, QASIMI RISING will be instrumental in scouting designer talent and providing them with a direct path to the QASIMI RISING Talent Incubator for the 2026 cohort. Selected designers will have the unique opportunity to showcase their work and engage in one-on-one workshops with QASIMI RISING mentors and key media figures during Lagos Fashion Week, taking place in October 2024.
Commenting on this partnership, Hoor Al Qasimi, founder of QASIMI RISING, stated, “We are committed to fostering a thriving fashion community across many cities on the African continent and around the world, our partnership with Lagos Fashion Week is a testament to this commitment. Together, we aspire to nurture local talents, empower their creativity, and offer a gateway to global recognition.”
