Hayati Fashion Week (HFW) was an event held in 2017 to present modest fashion collections from Nigeria and other African countries founded by Fatima Togbe. [1]

The event was sponsored by the Medicaid Cancer Foundation (MCF). [2] [3] [4] [5] Other sponsors included Dunes Center, Pandora, Nestle brand Maggi, Vlisco and Arith & Paul.

Hayati Fashion Week was created as a response to a perceived lack of representation of modest fashion on major Nigerian fashion platforms. It has provided designers, models, artists and other businesses in the Nigerian modest fashion industry, a platform to showcase their work, directly. [6]
