Still in the Black Panther frenzy, the world premiere of the movie on Monday, January 29th saw some of your favourite African and African-American superstars gracing the event in elegant African-inspired fashion to complement the “African Royalty” dress code.
For Ugandan artist, Kemiyondo Coutinho, who dabbles in film, music, and activism, those in attendance could have taken it up a notch by wearing clothes made specifically by African designers.
A thread of designers I wish I had seen on the Black Panther carpet. (All African. Because if a theme is African Royalty we should take the opportunity to showcase African Designers)
