The
Fashions Finest Africa team would like to inform the entire public that
the dates for the Epic Show have been moved. The Epic Show which was
initially set to hold from Friday, May 25th to Sunday, May 27th 2018 will now hold on Friday, May 25th, Sunday, May 27th and Monday, May 28th 2018.All activities and events of the Epic Show remain the same except that the Saturday show has been moved to Sunday and that of Sunday to Monday.

In
a bid to further help improve the Nigerian Fashion Industry, the FFA
team
decided to put together master classes to run for two days just
before the Epic Show. The master class will run for two days Wednesday,
May 23, 2018 and Thursday, May 24, 2018
at NEPC Training Facility, Road, Apapa, Lagos. The topic for the master
class is ‘How to transform from boutique to Mass Production” and will
be facilitated by Jennifer Sutton and Mabel Doe.
The
Epic Show will kick off on Friday Morning, with a Fashion conference
where those who matter in the fashion industry will take on panel
sessions. The conference themed; “Increasing Nigeria’s participation in
the Global Garment Production industry” has Her Excellency Hajia Aisha
Abubakar, Minister of State for Industry, Trade and Investment as the
Guest of Honour while Mallam Ismaila Zakari(ICAN President) would be
speaking at the conference. Jennifer Sutton (Development Director,
Fashion Enter/Capital Uk) who is the Headline conference speaker will be
discussing the British fashion industry and how Fashion Enter now
successfully produces up to 10,000 units a week in a fully compliant
factory, and how their practices and approaches can be executed in the
Nigerian Garment/fashion industry. Mabel Doe (Technical
consultant/Fashion Technologist) who is an expert in her field would
also be speaking at the conference. Our Panel session includes Mrs Funmi
Ajila -Ladipo (FADAN PRESIDENT), Engr. Chris Oputa (CEO Studio 24),

Then later in the day
the prestigious Fashions Finest Africa Awards will take place. The
essence of the awards is to celebrate those who have made a mark in the
fashion industry.
All through the three days
we will also play hosts to Exhibitors and our marketplace vendors
giving the opportunity to fashion lovers to shop till they drop.
The
Epic show will continue on Sunday and Monday with a Fashion show
featuring Student designers, New and Emerging designers and established
designers out of Africa.
After the Fashion show on Monday evening, the Epic Show will be closed with the Fashions Finest Africa Rave where everyone would hit the dance floor with fashion twist and have even more fun with Ace DJ Crowd Kontroller on the wheels of steel.
