“Since its inception, EFW has been on the forefront of giving up-and-coming designers a platform to showcase their unique abilities and creativity.
“Historically, the spotlight has always been on designers who have financial backing to showcase at celebrated fashion weeks in the country.
“This has often proven despondent for designers without these resources, despite being equally talented, if not more,” he said.
Designers are selected on strict criteria, according to Monoki.
