About Afro Chic Design

Afro Chic Designs is a fashion brand that celebrates culture through modern style. Founded in Brisbane, the business specialises in contemporary clothing and accessories crafted from authentic African Ankara fabrics. Each piece blends vibrant prints with modern tailoring, creating fashion that is bold, versatile, and wearable for everyday life as well as special occasions.

Our collections are proudly sourced from Zimbabwe, supporting local artisans and connecting global customers to the richness of African craftsmanship. By employing and collaborating with local designers, we help them earn a sustainable living while preserving traditional skills and uplifting communities. Afro Chic Designs is more than fashion; it is a statement of identity and pride. By offering high-quality, ethically made clothing and accessories, we provide customers around the world with an opportunity to wear culture with confidence while contributing to sustainable livelihoods in Africa.

As the founder, Cynthia Mhizha, I was born in Zimbabwe and now reside in Brisbane, Australia. I have always had a passion for fashion and African prints, inspired by the colours, textures, and stories woven into every fabric. My vision is for every African to feel comfortable wearing their heritage with pride and to showcase Africa’s beauty and creativity through prints that tell our story to the world.

Our motto is simple yet powerful: Be bold. Be authentic. Unapologetically African.
