No African Designer Made The Cut!..... Check Out Time Magazine's "All-TIME" 100 Fashion Icons List

Time magazine released their list of "All-TIME" 100 Fashion Icons list and celebrities like Michelle Obama, Karl Lagerfield,Naomi Campbell, and fashion label Louis Vuitton made the cut. I noticed that apart from supermodel/entrepreneur Iman, no other African or African fashion label/label made the list. This says alot about African fashion. I also noticed that Andre Leon Talley(who I consider an authority in fashion) was missing on the list.

Well here are the people that made the cut...............
