Zambia has the potential of producing internationally recognised designers as it has a lot of good and talented designers but local fashion designers lack good and indigenous materials for the couture industry hence are forced to import from other African countries, said Zambian fashion designer Charity Nyirongo.
Nyirongo has called on the government to invest in fashion designing training institutions as the move has the potential to revive the collapsed textile industry.
