Today, I’m delighted to bring you the final episode of the season with an interview of me conducted by my friend Gaëlle Prudencio. I went back over the origins of the Africa Fashion Tour platform and this first season of interviews with professionals based on the 54-country continent. For this special episode, I wanted to change the format and offer you a video with my afro. I hope you enjoy it. See you soon in Africa or elsewhere.

Today, we’re off to Casablanca, Morocco, to meet Julie Defudes, founder of the Dar Islie platform dedicated to promoting handicrafts. A stylist by training, she has worked at Galiano and for Fast Fashion brands. She knows the fashion industry inside out, from luxury to mass market. Passionate about know-how and in search of meaning, she decided to break away from the industrialization of fashion to work in close collaboration with artisans and shed light on little-known techniques. She tells us about her journey and the various actions she has taken to develop her social enterprise.

In this fifth episode, we catch up with Nasita Fofana, founder of Sitaindigo, a women’s ready-to-wear brand based in Guinea Conakry. Nasita studied political science. She left France right after her studies to settle in Conakry. She worked for a consulting firm serving the Guinean government. She has always wanted to set up her own business.
A business with impact. She decided to contribute to the valorization of the know-how of Guinea’s weavers. She chose to create a fashion brand and to use Lepi, the traditional weaving of Guinea, to develop her collections. Her achievements are all the more impressive given that she is just 25 years old.
