The Abryanz Style & Fashion Awards, commonly known as the ASFAs return on the 16th of December 2022 at Kampala Serena Hotel after two years.
Recognized as Africa’s biggest Fashion Awards and red-carpet event, the “8th ASFAs” celebrate groundbreaking fashion creatives, influencers and contributors across Africa and beyond that have shaped the fashion industry through the pandemic, under the theme “The Awakening.”
Commenting on the nomination list, Brian Ahumuza, CEO ASFAs said, “Special appreciation goes out to everyone that nominated, got nominated and participated in the process. We do not take this kind of effort and support for granted.
The team had to look through over 5,000 nominations in the various nomination platforms and we now proudly present the final list of ASFA 2022 Nominees.”
“Come December 16th, we therefore, promise another mind-blowing experience at Africa’s biggest fashion event,” Ahumuza concluded.
Over the past few weeks, the team has carefully selected the nominees for this year’s event, from the thousands of entries received since the nomination process kicked off last month.
This coveted list was unveiled recently at the Kampala Brunch. Following public nominations and assessment from the ASFA board, the awarding event has released the Nomination list of members eligible for voting.
Winners will be announced during the live Abryanz Style & Fashion Awards show at Kampala Serena Hotel. The results of the Abryanz Style and Fashion Awards, including winners and nominees, are solely dependent on the ASFA Body.
