The story

Monrovia Fashion Week in Monrovia

Monrovia Fashion Week, founded in 2013 by Marjean Sherman, is a five-day event combining model showcases, designer meet-and-greets, a fashion show, a shopping event and a signature Fashion's Night Out celebration. It focuses on surfacing undiscovered Liberian design talent and has since expanded into a diaspora-facing Monrovia Fashion Week USA offshoot.

Monrovia Fashion Week was founded in 2013 by Marjean Sherman with the stated purpose of promoting Liberia's undiscovered creative talent, and it first hit the scene as a five-day event in December of that year.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Its five-day, multi-format structure, blending runway, retail and nightlife into one program under the Fashion's Night Out banner, distinguishes Monrovia Fashion Week from single-evening runway shows

02

The mystery stays covered

Its explicit mission of surfacing undiscovered Liberian talent, tied to founder Marjean Sherman's original 2013 vision, remains central to its identity

03

The city starts moving

The event's willingness to keep running despite documented sponsorship shortfalls also reflects an unusual organizer commitment to sustaining a homegrown fashion platform rather than folding it into a larger, externally funded production
