The main fashion show featured collections from Mina Evans, K’Naf Couture, Brigitte Merki, ReneeQ and Rima Fahrky modeled by students, parents and school officials from the German-Swiss International School. Gretchen Krantz Evans, a parent and member of the Board of Directors for the school stated that the proceeds from the event would be donated to support refugee that fled Ivory Coast during the political crisis that saw thousands being displaced and killed. The donations would be made to the refugees via the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and International Organization for Migration (IOM).
Ivory Coast has been plagued by civil war after a disputed election which led Laurent Gbagbo to hold on to power, rejecting election results as well as diplomats’ efforts to end power struggle. Until he was arrested, he held on to power because he believed there were lots of irregularities in the elections Allasana Quattara won. This power struggle resulted in loyalist of both men fighting each other. Several homes were raided whiles thousands of inhabitants became homeless. Photos by Theresa Meka
