When you hear the word “Rwanda”, what comes to mind? For most people, it’s the 1994 genocide, a controversial UK immigration debate, or it’s just a small country somewhere in Africa. But what if that’s only part of its story as a nation?
In this podcast, Danilo, Betty and Milly explore what people really know (and don’t know) about Rwanda. From its booming economy to a thriving fashion scene that most people have never heard of, Rwanda is quietly rewriting its place on the world stage…well, runway.
We explore how the upcoming Rwanda Fashion Week 2026, taking place in London, can become an unexpected driver of economic growth, cultural pride and global recognition. With eight Rwandan designers set to showcase their work, we ask whether a runway can really reset our perception of this small nation.
Join us as we dig into fast fashion, sustainability and what it actually means to support the hands that craft the clothes we wear.
