L’Afrique Fashion Show showcases rich Nigerian culture and commuity

SAN ANTONIO – A community event sought to show off the beautiful culture and heritage of Nigeria to visitors across San Antonio.

As part of the Alamo city’s Dreamweek celebrations, the L’Afrique Fashion Show delighted visitors from 2 to 4 p.m. on Saturday at the Brick at Blue Star.

The L’Afrique Fashion Show showcased the culture of Nigeria. Organizers say events like this help bring the community together, and provide fashion tips.

“One of the things that people need to help others do is dress and dress well,” Dupe Adedeji of Tudi’s African Boutique said. “Not everybody has a sense of fashion. I don’t mean that in an ugly way, but you know, like someone like me, that’s my niche. I love fashion, it doesn’t matter what’s going on, I just want to dress up, and I love to dress people up. So that’s one of the reasons why I do this.”

A raffle was held at the show to help young girls go to prom this year. Winners will receive a dress and have their makeup done for free.
