ICansi Fashion Fest: A Fruity Harvest of Style Join us for the 3rd edition of the ICansi Fashion Fest, a vibrant celebration of fashion, culture, and cuisine in Bulawayo! This year's theme, 'A Fruity Harvest of Style,' brings indigenous fruits to the forefront, inspiring runway pieces that showcase local wild fruits, their blossoms, textures, and flavors. About Icansi The name was inspired by Icansi, a traditional grass mat found in many Southern African homesteads, serving as a symbol of communal gatherings and cultural exchange. Typically brought out for large groups of visitors during meals, discussions, storytelling sessions, or cultural events like lobola negotiations, initiations, or funerals, it represents a shared space where people come together to share experiences and strengthen bonds. In the context of the Icansi Fashion Fest, the icansi embodies the spirit of cultural preservation and celebration, providing a platform for people to experience the rich heritage of African fashion, art, and cuisine.
