Celebrating a New Milestone in Ugandan Fashion

Today as we dive into a new Month of October, I had the privilege of visiting the new Sawe Creations Fashion House location with , a pageant queen from Buganda.

On Saturday, October 11th, Sawe will officially launch her new space,a bold step that reflects her strength, resilience, and vision for Uganda’s fashion industry.

Catherine Sawe is not only an individual member of the Pearl of Africa Fashion Alliance (PAFA) , but also serves as our Fashion Designer Liaison, a role in which she continues to inspire and advocate for the growth of the sector.

Her commitment to eco-friendly practices and her unwavering support for the “Buy Uganda, Build Uganda” initiative make her a trailblazer. By blending organic textures, cultural storytelling, and modern silhouettes, she is creating a unique identity for Ugandan fashion.

From her recent showcase of a baby collection at the Brand Protection Symposium to the successful registration of her brand trademark, Sawe continues to chart a transformative journey of greatness.

I am very proud of you, , for this new chapter. May your journey inspire more designers to dream big, work sustainably, and proudly wear Uganda to the world.

Let’s all stand with her as she opens this new door for the future of Ugandan fashion.

“Fast fashion is like fast food; after the sugar rush, it just leaves a bad taste in your mouth.” – Livia Firth

Yesterday, I had the privilege of visiting ’s factory in Kasangati. Together with (Costume Designer), we experienced firsthand the remarkable work of Dimma’s team of weavers and young creatives.

Using banana fibres, organic cotton, and textile waste (including offcuts and second-hand clothes), Dimma is tackling the challenges of fast fashion with bold, sustainable solutions. His dedication recently earned him recognition as the Most Innovative & Outstanding Designer at the Brand Protection Symposium, organized by URSB & PAFA.

I was deeply inspired, especially after watching his interview on CNN’s “Inside Africa” where he spoke passionately about sustainable fashion — and today, I saw that vision in action.

I am proud to share that will now join our mentor team for the Fashion Futures — Turning Ambition into Achievement Mentorship Program by the Pearl of Africa Fashion Alliance (PAFA). Together, we will nurture Uganda’s next generation of designers, ensuring that sustainability, innovation, and originality define their future.

Uganda’s fashion industry is on the rise — and it starts with visionaries like Dimma.

It was an honor to host my good friend Derrick Kuttos Lukoye .kuttos at the Brand Protection Symposium 2025.

Kuttos is a true fashion entrepreneur, logistics and tech innovator, brand builder, and founder of the Kuttos Fashion Store .store . He is among the few, if not the very first, Ugandan entrepreneurs to embrace e-commerce strategies ,marketing and selling his brand on Facebook long before it became the trend.

We thank him for gracing the symposium and look forward to seeing him join our PAFA community of fashion innovators. The journey to protecting and growing Uganda’s fashion brands is stronger with pioneers like him!

After weeks of preparation, reaching out to fashion entrepreneurs, and explaining the benefits of joining the Pearl of Africa Fashion Alliance (PAFA), our efforts culminated in success at the Brand Protection Symposium 2025.

The fashion industry in Uganda presents unique challenges — especially the hesitation by many to associate their craft with government-led initiatives. Yet, what consumed my team and me with sleepless nights has now become a triumph, not just for us, but for the entire industry.

I firmly believe we must invest not only in glamour but also in events and activities that provide real value propositions for the growth and sustainability of our fashion sector.

Receiving this Certificate of Appreciation from the Registrar General of URSB, Ms. Mercy K. Kainobwisho, is more than an honor — it is a milestone in my journey and a renewed commitment to building this nascent industry into a globally competitive one.

This recognition strengthens my resolve to keep pushing boundaries, uniting creatives, and ensuring that Uganda’s fashion industry is not just seen, but respected and protected.

The Pearl of Africa Fashion Alliance (PAFA) was honored with a Certificate of Appreciation presented by the Registrar General, Ms. Mercy K. Kainobwisho.

This recognition, given on behalf of the Uganda Registration Services Bureau URSB , affirms the value of Pearl of Africa Fashion Alliance (PAFA) ’s role as a partner and organizer in driving forward the national conversation on brand protection, intellectual property, and innovation in the fashion industry.

For me personally, this moment is more than just a certificate — it is a testament to the journey we began with the Creative Ownership Campaign, and proof that when government and industry collaborate, we can unlock real opportunities for creatives.

I extend my sincere gratitude to URSB for trusting PAFA, and to every designer, entrepreneur, and stakeholder who made the symposium a success. This is just the beginning — together, we are building an industry that is recognized, protected, and globally competitive.

Wednesday , I had the privilege of joining fellow members of the National Culture Forum (NCF) in a meeting with the Committee of Legal and Parliamentary Affairs to discuss the Copyright and Neighbouring Rights (Amendment) Bill, 2025, a key piece of legislation now under consideration before reporting back to the House.

Representing the fashion sector in such a space is both an honour and a responsibility. Our industry, built on creativity, heritage, and innovation, deserves the same strong intellectual property protections afforded to other creative sectors.

Through PAFA’s submissions, we continue to advocate for:
✨ Explicit recognition of fashion design as a protected artistic work
✨ Safeguards for traditional and cultural designs
✨ Fair economic rights for designers across the value chain
✨ Accessible registration and enforcement mechanisms

The meeting was productive, with NCF’s leadership driving a united creative industry front.

I remain hopeful that these reforms will mark the beginning of a stronger, fairer, and more globally competitive Ugandan fashion sector.

The future is tailored for success, let’s wear it with pride.

She is more than a face on stage or a figure in a sash.
She is a leader, a role model, and a vessel of impact.

While beauty may open doors, it is service, character, and vision that build a legacy.

“From Crown to Community”

For most young women today , the journey into a pageant begins with one thing: competition—the glitz, the excitement, the chance to stand out.

But what if I told you the real legacy of a beauty queen is not in the title… but in the transformation she creates in her community?

Becoming a changemaker means shifting from “I want to win” to “I want to serve.”
This is the future of pageantry in Africa.

This is purpose-driven leadership.

Join the movement.

Every fashion line starts with a sketch, which is a manifestation of imagination, a subtle expression of identity, and a pulse of cultural expression.

But in today’s fast-paced world, where trends travel faster than protection, our creativity as designers is at constant risk.

At the IP in Fashion Workshop recently, we learned something powerful: intellectual property is not just legal jargon; it's your armor.

Your sketchpad is your soul. Your patterns, your silhouettes, and your brand name—now these are all assets that deserve protection, recognition, and respect.

To my lovely fashionpreneurs in Uganda:
👉🏾 Register your designs.
👉🏾 Trademark your brand.
👉🏾 Know your rights.
👉🏾 Own your creativity.

Don't let your genius go uncredited. The world is watching—and it’s time they know who you are.

Let’s turn our fashion dreams into protected legacies.

Thank you for championing this historic milestone.

It was an honour to stand before Uganda’s creative minds — designers, stylists, tailors, photographers, and fashion students — and finally say:

“Your creativity is your capital. Now, let’s protect it.”

This workshop was not just about Intellectual Property. It was about dignity, ownership, and recognition. For far too long, fashion has been treated as passion, not policy. Today we changed that.

As Pearl of Africa Fashion Alliance (PAFA) , we remain committed to building a future where Ugandan creatives thrive with legal backing, business knowledge, and industry support.

This is just the beginning. We will push forward into our education, our advocacy, registration drives, and policy engagement until every stitch, sketch, and story is protected and celebrated.
