“Johannesburg will be a strategic opportunity to explore an emerging market like South Africa,” said Cleto Sagripanti, president of ANCI, in the build-up to the event. “The growing middle class of Africa is bringing about an interesting structural change in consumership that ANCI, with this initiative, seeks to understand and explore to its fullest.”
After an opening press conference on Monday May 14 there will be a presentation on fashion trends from specialist Milan-based consultant Aldo Premoli.
