In an interview which was shot at The Tribe Hotel earlier last week, Supermodel Ajuma Nyasenyana who has graced many prestigious fashion shows like Alexander McQueen, Vivienne Westwood and Victoria Secret just to name a few talked to Inspired Citizen on issues that faced her when she was growing up because of her dark skin. In an honest yet hard hitting conversation she explained the fact that dark skinned girls would go to the extent of using bleaching agents which would make them look light skinned and how men wouldn't want to date her because of her skin colour. She has been in a campaign of making dark skinned girls both in the fashion industry and those who aren't in the fashion industry embrace there skin colour and making them be proud of it. We know our black models have been finding it hard to book great shows in fashion weeks abroad which is really unbelievable and this calls for great support since we all know BLACK IS BEAUTY.!!

The most anticipated fashion show in Kenya and around the globe was yesterday filled with glamour, high fashion and beautiful designs by both the local designers and international designers. The event was filled with fashion enthusiastic people and journalists from across the globe. From the international designers we had people like Zekaryas Solomon from UK, B'Exotiq from Ghana and Mudi Africa from Nigeria showing there vibrant collections and also designers releasing there new collections like Kikoromeo by Ann McCreath and Kaveke. The Emerging Designers Jamil Walji, Azra Walji ,Galina Tatarinova, Ogake Mosomi also had their New collections being showcases and I must say I was very impressed. The colours used, creativity and designs were on top of the roof and  FAFA has given them the perfect platform to grow both in talent and exposure. A lot was happening as it was all in celebrating African fashion and its correspondent.Kenyan Sports people who represented Kenya in the London Olympics were also celebrated plus Top CEO'S of different companies. International Models like Ajuma Nyasenyana and Honorine also graced the Catwalk. A big thank you goes to Ann McCreath, the whole FAFA TEAM and my Fabulous friend Cate Sidede for making all this possible.
