This year’s edition of the Fashion Revolution Expo,set be held on April 5 in Entebbe, promises to be a rather different one. Not just different from the previous editions, but also quite distinct from your usual fashion shows.
The spark this time round has been put in the location of the show, the beach. This would arguably be the first time a runway is setup at the beach, with extremely creative presentation of designs highlighting designers’ collections with inspiration drawn mostly from the ancient fashion, and the greenery environment from our country and the beauty of it, as well as youth and female empowerment.
The 3rd edition dubbed “Garden of Eden,” is intended to foster extreme creativity and art, talent and skills among young, passionate and artistic designers, according to Vivianna Zoe-Girl, the founder of the Fashion Revolution Expo
The high level show we are told will be graced by renowned personalities from the fashion industry who will showcase their designs. Revelers will be treated to entertainment from sensational saxophonist, Joseph Sax.
Vivianna further noted that fashion is among the industries that have shaped conversations, not only in Uganda, but world over, with fashion trends emerging every now and then, thus presenting a lucrative avenue for individuals to explore as the industry continues to mark it’s presence on the international scene.
Because of the still ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and the guidelines set, the event will be largely virtual. Vivianna assures revelers that all Standard Operating Procedures will be met.
