Heshima Kenya’s Fashion Challenge celebrates refugee girls and young women, highlighting their work in the Maisha Collective, Heshima Kenya’s social enterprise in which they produce the unique, hand-dyed scarves that will be featured in event fashion show. Designers will receive two Maisha Collective scarves chosen at random, and will have just two weeks to design one original women’s look and one accessory. Looks will be judged based on originality, wearability, demonstration of designer personality, and construction quality. Let the best design win!Get a sneak peak of the fun by watching our highlights from the 2014 Fashion Challenge:Highlights from our 2014 Fashion Challenge. 2015 Fashion Challenge Thank you to our distinguished Host CommitteeShanita AkintondeDanni Allen Patricia Amira*Kristen N.
