One of Nigeria’s biggest fashion events Arise Fashion Week was founded in 2008 by Arise Magazine founder Nduka Obaigbena to showcase the work of African designers. It was one of the first design initiatives to bring major brands including Lisa Folawiyo and Tiffany Amber to a global audience and has since grown in scope and influence after relaunching its platform in 2018 in partnership with supermodel Naomi Campbell. AFWs 2020 edition marked a turning point in its history with the launch of the Arise Fashion Week 30 Under 30 competition.
