May 2006.
Africans
are painting the world in a kaleidoscope of bold,
vibrant colour combinations and dazzling patterns.
The rich fabrics and virtually unlimited selection
of turbans and other festive headgear, bright
scarves, colourful wraps, wearable art and elegant
gowns that brightened our days and lit up our
evenings in Morocco, Kenya, Ethiopia, Cameroon,
Cote d'Ivoire Uganda, Benin, Ghana, Tanzania,
Guinea and other African destinations, were simply
outstanding. What's more, so were the creators.
During the past decade as publishers, we've had the
privilege of meeting several of the brightest stars
in Africa's fashion galaxy, and thanks to the magic
of serendipity, more will surely appear in the near
future. As I've learned, in many African societies,
the choice of colours and textiles has special
significance to the wearer. For example, hats often
tell stories of everyday life, with its struggles,
spiced by uplifting periods of joie de vivre.
