Magical As Usual: Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Africa

Once more, Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Africa was the hottest fashion event on the continent this year. With a broad range of incredible creative individuals, they brought about a fresh revival for the oncoming season. The trends are diverse and the most important statement is to choose what you want to wear. Nothing should be a fashion mistake as everyone has his own style — what looks good on someone doesn't necessarily have to be for you.  Enjoy pieces from Duaba Serwa, Kibonen, Laurence Airline, Marianne Fassler, Alexa Liss, Angie Masike, Bongiwe Walaza, Eleni Labrou, Gavin Rajah, Hugo Fleur, Kluk CGdT, Menckel, Mille Collines, Mina Evans, Projecto Mental, Sheria Ngowi, Shweta Wahi, Sophie Zinga, Taibo Bacar, Thula Sindi, Wetive Ngozi and Mustafa Hassanali. If you want to talk about it, tweet #pretapoundo.
