INYIM Media African Designers: Brand "Rich Mnisi" Shines On Portugal Fashion’s Catwalk!

"The latest edition of Portugal Fashion brought several novelties. The most relevant came from the partnership with the Creative Africa Nexus (CANEX), of Afreximbank, a program of the African Investment Bank, which aims to facilitate investment in the African creative and cultural economy. 20 designers from different countries in Africa showed their work during Portugal Fashion: 3 in BLOOM and 5 in the main platform, with the remaining 12 brands represented in BrandUp, the Portugal Fashion showroom.

Rich Mnisi is a multidisciplinary contemporary brand based in South Africa, founded in 2015 by the eponymous designer, winner of the Essence Best in Black Fashion Awards in 2019. The brand was born out of Mnisi’s desire to connect more deeply with his unique culture and heritage and to be able to tell a story through his art. Each collection presents a distinct point of view, celebrating culture, heritage and human experience." - Fucingyoung.es
