Yes, fashion journalism is a serious undertaking, but a dress isn’t, generally, a crucial news item. And it is made from African fabrics (which are really mostly Dutch produced, and originated in Indonesia, but that’s a story for another day). It looks cute, if a bit tenty, and I love African fabrics and have a small collection of fun ones, including two patterns with a fantastic laptop print. What made me roll my eyes a bit is that there is so much happening in African fashion. This is a single story, so it doesn’t tell you much about fashion from Kenya, and that was probably never the intention.
