Best of Kenyan fashion designers awarded
Fashion lovers gathered at Norfolk Hotel last weekend where the best of the best were feted during the annual Kenya Fashion Awards.
The gala night showcased the best of fashion designs Kenya has to offer ranging from students to well renowned established designers.
The awards, which lacked the pomp and glamorous flare accompanied by most award ceremonies, were less attended by nearly 100 people but that could not dampen the mood as they cheered on the designs and made the most of the night.
More than 10 student fashion designers showcased their designs all meant to go with the theme assigned to them by the judges.
The students gathered from various fashion schools all over the country. The award for best student designer went to Manuela Numfor.
