What do we love more than the cast and drama within the hit Netflix series ‘Young, Famous and African’? The looks of course! And what’s not to love? African fashion gives the rest of the world a run for their money. From the confessionals to each event, gathering and moment in between, these style icons concocted the greatest ensembles showcasing local talents for us to discover. Here are the best fits on the show as well as the designers and stylist behind them!
