Africa Textile Talks 2025, the continent's leading summit on sustainable fashion and textiles, takes place in Cape Town from 29–31 July at the V&A Waterfront.

Co-produced by Twyg (South Africa) and Imiloa Collective (Mauritius), the event brings together African designers, manufacturers, sustainability experts, and innovators to explore how fashion can become a force for regeneration and care.

Themed Thread with Care, the summit includes a week-long exhibition of natural African fibres and showcases pioneering approaches to circularity, repair, and environmental stewardship.

Key sessions will address circular design systems, regenerative wool practices, and textile innovation rooted in African tradition. Confirmed speakers include experts in fashion waste, fibre upcycling, and sustainable community projects.
