African Fashion Week Houston

African Fashion Week Houston (AFWH) ) is the city's premier international fashion series that highlights the essence of African culture and aesthetics on the runway through a series of fashion shows, events, educational seminars, industry-focused workshops and special campaigns. Our annual week-long experience aims to promote world-class designer collections that push the envelope on style, while staying true to the traditions and inspiration of the African continent, and the diaspora.

Founded in 2014 by business and tech entrepreneur Nkem Oji-Alala, AFWH has continued to progress in the world of cultural fashion thanks to their unique approach of connecting with the visions of selected designers to curate their collections with the utmost attention to detail, precision, and boldness on the runway.

Furthermore, as reflected across many African cultures, our organization believes in the value of community. AFWH supports aspiring professionals looking to enter the world of fashion through our partnerships with notable educational institutions within the Greater Houston area. In addition, the organization frequently endorses both charitable and cultural organizations that are dedicated to welfare, growth and spirit of society. In every season, and in every tradition, African Fashion Week Houston is the ultimate connection for fashion and culture - on the runway!
