5th Edition of Kampala Fashion Week To Be Held at The Kampala Railway Station

Kampala Fashion Week has confirmed that this year’s edition will take place at the Kampala Railway station.

Speaking exclusively to Bellanaijastyle, the organizers shared that this new venue is part of their strategy to provoke change and push boundaries.

“When we were generating ideas for this landmark edition, our team nostalgically reflected upon how far we have come since our first designer showcases in 2014. From holding our first KFW at a former airport to our third edition taking place at an industrial warehouse – we have never been afraid to undertake a creative challenge. We seek to provoke change, encourage fashion and the arts, as well as pushing boundaries and limits. Looking back, we can see how far the fashion industry and community has come in Kampala and we are proud and honoured to be a part of that journey.”

That brings us to this year’s location – Constructed in the 1890’s, the Kampala Railway Station was an economically strong and strategic achievement for Uganda’s infrastructure. An inspiration for us to create a transformative, symbolic experience of the spirit of Kampala city to showcase the growth and development of Uganda, and to inspire and motivate our art community and audience.

Kicking off with the SEED Project show on day one, the event will have over 22 showcases from designers from Uganda and beyond. It will run from the 27th – 29th September, and LDJ Productions, the team behind New York Fashion Week will be producing the event yet again.

Kampala Fashion Week is Uganda’s most influential fashion platform, and is fast becoming one of the most sought after events on Africa’s fashion calendar. Last year’s event alone attracted press from Vogue Italia, CNN, BBC and more.
