Adebayo Jones Diary — Day 2 ✨ | AFWT 2026
From the runway to the morning spotlight! ✨🇨🇦
CTV CP 24 BREAKFAST
Day 2 the Adebayo Jones Diary at African Fashion Week Toronto 2026 was another unforgettable celebration of African creativity, culture, fashion, design, and artistic expression.
The day began with a wonderful visit to CTV’s morning programme, where we had the pleasure of sharing the story of Sankofa Fest, in collaboration with African Fashion Week Toronto 2026.
Joining us was the remarkable Brenda Foreman, Director at AFWT, whose passion and dedication continue to help create powerful platforms for African fashion and culture in Canada.
And what a spectacular way to showcase the vision of AFWT—with Ashley and Derek, the two faces of AFWT 2026 proudly modelling exquisite Adebayo Jones Luxury Couture. ✨
Their presence, elegance, and energy brought the designs to life and demonstrated once again how fashion can become a powerful language of culture, identity, and storytelling.
The interview was an opportunity to talk about Sankofa Fest and its beautiful collaboration with AFWT—a celebration rooted in the richness of African heritage while embracing the creativity and innovation of today.
Sankofa reminds us to look back, honour where we come from, and carry the wisdom of our heritage forward.
That spirit is at the heart of this celebration.
From fashion and design to art, music, creativity, and cultural expression, Day 2 reminded us that African culture is vibrant, diverse, and continuously evolving.
It was more than a media appearance.
It was a moment to celebrate heritage, amplify African voices, and showcase African excellence on a global stage.
A huge thank you to CTV, Brenda Foreman, Ashley, Derek, AFWT, Sankofa Fest, and everyone making this extraordinary celebration possible.
The journey continues… and the best is yet to come! 🌍✨
