Anifa Mvuemba: Preparing for the runway

Anifa Mvuemba, creator of fashion brand Hanifa, prepares for her first runway show in Washington, DC, where she will launch her label's first shoe collection.

The fashion label Hanifa was launched in 2012 - Anifa Mvuemba's dream of a label that featured ready-to-wear clothes for women sizes 0-20, finally came true. And now she's preparing for her debut runway show in Washington, DC, and is designing shoes to accompany it, her first foray into footwear.

Join Karen Baker as she meets Anifa at the drawing table where the design for a beautiful evening gown is emerging but will it make it to the catwalk? Feel the buzz as preparations for the show pick up pace and Karen meets others involved in preparing for a runway show, from music makers to make-up artists to models.

Presented and co-produced by Karen Baker and co-produced by Rebecca Armstrong for 大象传媒 World Service.
