Spotlight on Damask

The festival week kicked off with an event at the National Museum in Mali, featuring traditional dances, music, and the exclusive "IKALOOK x GETZNER" collection. High-quality Getzner Damask took centre stage. Another highlight was the fashion show by ten young designers who showcased their unique interpretations of the traditional Boubou, crafted from Getzner Damask – modern, creative, and diverse.
