John Legend’s recent performance in Kigali wasn’t just about music—it was a celebration of movement, culture, and fashion. As he took the stage at the Global Citizen Move Afrika show, he wasn’t just singing; he was showcasing the brilliance of Rwandan design.

For his first look, the Grammy-winning artist wore a stunning white tunic by Moshions, featuring a fluid blue ombré shoulder—a sophisticated nod to Rwandan heritage.

Later, he switched into a sleek black satin suit by Tanga Designs, adorned with a shimmering gold sash that caught the light with every note.

Behind the impeccable styling was Dave Thomas, the renowned stylist who ensured Legend looked as powerful as his voice sounded. But the fashion spotlight didn’t stop there—his backing vocalists were also dressed in Moshions and Tanga Designs, making Rwandan craftsmanship a key part of the performance.

In a night filled with music and movement, John Legend’s wardrobe told a story of tradition, artistry, and African excellence. Rwanda’s fashion scene is clearly making waves on the global stage, and this was just the beginning.
