Calling Fashion Creatives, MTN Lagos Fashion and Design Week Awards is BACK, and you can win up to 4 Million Naira!

Nigerian fashion has metamorphosed from being merely cultural to a way of life. A whole new generation of fashion designers, fashion creatives and fashion taste makers have made it desirable to be seen wearing clothes made by Nigerian designers. This influence has gradually spread and is being represented on runways around the world.

Last year, MTN Lagos Fashion and Design Week debuted as a premiere fashion event, which brought together media, the industry, buyers and consumers to view the current collections of designers in the fashion capital of Lagos, Nigeria.

The platform which cut across geographic and culture barriers started with a tour of Nigeria’s top cities; Lagos, Port Harcourt, and Abuja scouting for the Nations most talented Fashion Creatives to compete at The Lagos Fashion and Design Week Awards.

The Lagos Fashion and Design Week Award aims to promote the development, growth and promotion of creatives in the industry by nurturing, fine tuning and harnessing their skills as well as providing them with a solid platform for achieving their goals.

Last year’s MTN LFDW Awards had 3 categories, The MTN British Council Young Designer of the Year, won by Binta Shuaibu who went home with a car, Master Classes facilitated by British Council and a 3 month presence at Le Petit Marche’s monthly pop up store. MTN British Council Young Creative Entrepreneur Ayotomi Rotimi went home with A Million Naira and a Tour of the United Kingdom’s Fashion Capital during London Fashion Week by British Council and a MTN Young Model of the Year Award won by Jenevieve Aken.
