Paledi Segapo, Founder and Creative Director of fashion power house Palse, is set to be honoured at this year’s Men’s Fashion Week Nigeria MAN Awards, receiving the night’s highest honour the “Special Fashion Achievement Award”. The MAN Awards recognize the outstanding work of gentlemen that have distinguished themselves through artistic and organizational impetus and shaping Africa’s fashion industry.

Commenting on his award Segapo says – “When I received a call from MFWN organisers I was left completely blown away on finding out I’ll be presented with their highest honour of the night. It honestly leaves me feeling ecstatic and very grateful that my work is acknowledged not only in South Africa but also in the continent.”

Not only being honored Segapo will also be showcasing for the second time at MFWN, but is no stranger to the Nigerian market having showcased at numerous other events before.  The renowned designer will be showcasing his new collection themed “I am An African” which he recently showcased in London in August this year, inspired by the 1996 speech of former South African President Thabo Mbeki.

Happy Africa day… #PALSEorNothing
