In the developed world, fashion change with the seasons. Fashion trends or predictions take months to arrive at the store. Fashion is big business. Fashion drives our desire for new clothes. We have to acquire the latest fashion.
In rural Congo, the fashion industry is different. Fashion trends travel slowly from village to village. But it may only take hours to produce for the customer. The fashion designer and the seamstress is one and the same person. The only thing needed is imaginative mind and a manual sewing machine.
