Kanabar added: “As this partnership with AfroFuture has taken shape, both brands share the sentiments that our collective efforts to continue platforming the next generation of creatives must live in the fabric of this collaboration. We’re elated to have the opportunity to represent the industry through this striking edit of designers, and look forward to how this partnership will continue to unfold.”
