Inspired by Africa :Fergie and Estelle in Wax( Ankara)

For past year and a half the runways were dominated by the WAX or should I say Ankara.The designers are actually using our fabric for some of their fabulous designs. When  I woke up this morning to check my emails I seen these two pictures from one of my favourite African fashion magazine Haute. I guess We will all learn to appreciate what we have cause Hollywood is taking over. Alright guys I Hope you enjoy the pics and Stay tuned on Ciaafrique and discover even more African talents in coming posts !!!!!!
Update: After  I found  these ladies I thought i would do more research to see who else is  being inspired by African fabric now  .Here is the result : Actress Ellen pompei  wearing  is beautiful dress.THis is the perfect dress for all mummies to be .
What do you think?
