Ramsey Nouah Instagram – Africa Fashion Week Amsterdam (@afwamsterdam) will dedicate an entire day to the Senior Fashion Show in collaboration with renowned Nigerian contemporary artist, virtual reality curator, and film director Malik Afegbua. (@Slickcityceo)
The event will take place on 30-31 August and aims to challenge the marginalization of older people in society and alter perceptions around aging. Afegbua’s AI-generated images of older-looking models in beautiful clothes caught the attention of Oscar-winning costume designer Ruth Carter, who saw them on social media and appreciated the message behind them.
His vision is to mix traditional African Nigerian fashion with something Afro-futuristic. Afegbua is an unapologetic advocate for the use of AI in art, believing that it can challenge us to create a better real world and a more stylish one for older people.
Africa Fashion Week Amsterdam is proud to feature this talented artist and his work in the upcoming fashion week.
