Different people approach the term Fashionista in various ways. One can refer a fashionista to a person who produces and promotes high fashion while another can term it to someone who dresses after current trends. So kind of a reflection of the general idea. You may have heard of a number of fashionistas in Uganda but among them you will find out a few are men.
However, contrary to popular belief, the world of fashion designing and modeling in men now offers nearly everyone a chance to participate. Though not every person can become a fashion model, there are promising results from those who have come out to taste it.
