Their was a lot of talent seen on that day; and this gives the fashion industry in Kenya

in my opinion, the fashion show was a success, everyone did a good job; the organizers, the models, the sound crew, the hair and make up crew and most important of all, the student designers who designed the garments that walked the runway.
