Kenya's second-hand clothes, popularly referred to mitumba, have made it to the Paris Haute Couture Fashion week thanks to a partnership between global technology company Epson and Japanese fashion designer Yuima Nakazato.
The new fabric production process was revealed in Paris as part of a three-year collaboration between Epson and Yuima Nakazato and was used in the creation of items for the first time during the latter's runway show at the Palais de Tokyo last week.
