The
fashion week is in place to highlight plus size models and apparels
featuring runway shows, exhibitions amongst other activities put in
place.
"The
Plus-size Fashion Week Africa was birthed out of the need to stop the
stigmatisation and body shaming of the plus-sized woman, we believe that
every woman should be comfortable in her skin and body regardless of
what the society thinks as long as they are healthy" the organizers
revealed and it highlighted just that at the show with plus size model
confidently strutting the runway in pieces from different designers (a
total of about 20 local and international brands that showcased at the
fashion week).
