rom April 19-21, 2024 Lagos Fashion Week presented the fifth edition of Woven Threads. The season’s showcase, themed “Commune,” was a vibrant tribute to African fashion and its community spirit.
Sustainability is often viewed through the pillars of economic, environmental and social development with culture taking a back seat. “Commune” took an exploratory dive into the work of creatives on the scene through the African cultural lens of community, the starting point of our creative process.
Woven Threads stands as a beacon for ethical and sustainable fashion, rooted in the rich traditions of African artisanal communities. Since inception, Woven Threads has focused on the drive towards a circular fashion economy in Africa, embracing traditional textiles, waste management, and the role technology plays in creating a sustainable fashion industry on the continent, based on the core principles of transparency, traceability and longevity. By recognizing creatives as catalysts for social change, the Woven Threads initiative invests in artisanal communities, fostering livelihoods and value creation from source to product.
