Kenyan fashion publicist and now African fashion ambassador is a rising phoenix that cannot be quenched, she gained global attention with her first 100 Days Of African Fashion campaign, which literally translates to her dedicating 100 days of every year wearing different African designers.

Diana Opoti has gone on to reprise the obviously daunting slash onerous campaign aimed at promoting #MadeInAfricaClothes and African Fashion for a second time, which is pretty much broadly similar to what we do with our BN Collection to Closet.

Diana has worn pieces from designers across Nigeria, her native Kenya, Ghana, South Africa and literally every other African country that you can think of, and has created immeasurable buzz for them in the course of wearing their clothes and documenting it.

Below are some of our best looks from Diana’s ongoing 100 Days Of African Fashion
