500 _aAfrican Fashion is diverse and dynamic as the continent and the people who live there. While experts have long recognized the importance of clothing as a marker of ethnic identity, life stages, political affiliation, and social class, they have only just begun to discover African Fashion. Contemporary African Fashion puts Africa at the intersection of world cultures and globolized identities, displaying the powerful creative force and impact of newly merging styles. Richly illustrated with color photographs. this book showcases haute couture for the African continent. The visual impact of fashion created and worn today in Affrica comes to life here, beautifully and brilliantly.
