This year’s ‘Rhythms On Da Runway’ has been launched with a call on designers to take inspiration from the theme, ‘Kente Edition.’
Kente is a Ghanaian textile made of hand-woven strips of silk and cotton.

Yvonne Ocloo noted that “this year, we take our mission forward by centering the conversation on one of Africa’s most iconic and sustainable fabrics – Kente.”
She urged designers to draw inspiration from the ancient wisdom of Kente weavers to create collections that are groundbreaking and sustainable.
“For this edition, we challenge designers to draw inspiration from the ancient wisdom of our Kente weavers, creating collections that are both groundbreaking and sustainable. Just as Kente weaving has stood the test of time, so too should our commitment to responsible fashion,” she said.
According to her, this year’s edition will witness exciting series of activities that celebrate not only the beauty of African fashion but also the immense talent that exists within the continent and beyond.
Touching on activities ahead of the main event, she revealed that “on October 5, we will host our casting, bringing together the most talented models ready to light up the runway.”
Additionally, she added that “October 26 will see our Industry Night, a special evening of networking and collaboration within the fashion and music industries.”
That would be followed by another innovation on November 14 with a unique forum dubbed ‘The Orange’ Roundtable’.
All of these would be crowned on November 30, with the main event, a night of unforgettable fashion, music, and cultural celebration at the Grand Arena.
