#FASHIONWEEK: AFI Cape Town Fashion Week – Where and When - #IAMAFRICA



And we have confirmation – AFI Cape Town Fashion, 21-24 March, 2018, will be hosted at the industrial Salt River Film Studios. A great choice, considering the amount of vast space the platform will get to play with and maximize in order to create an auspicious fashion week experience for its guests.

The theme for this year’s Cape Town Fashion Week is #IamAfrica, AFI’s calling summed up in one concise hashtag – to celebrate and showcase exceptional African creative talent on a global stage. Honoured with the iaugural Franca Sozzani ‘Fashion 4 Development’Award in recognition of her efforts in empowering and showcasing African designers, AFI Executive Chairman Dr Precious Moloi-Motsepe is fearlessly committed to helping African fashion shine.



Seasoned show producer and newly appointed Production Director for AFI Cape Town Fashion Week, Jan Malan, is renowned for staging fashion shows in unique spaces. “There’s something about this old gritty industrial space that excites me”, muses Production Director, Jan Malan. “The unique façade and indoor architecture style of Salt River Film Studios boasts unusually high roof beams and an extensive gantry system, which is great for lighting and our complex rigging requirements. We’ve got some incredible plans and I can’t wait to see it all come together.”
