Arise Magazine

Africa’s International Style Magazine

ARISE is Africa’s first and foremost international style magazine, highlighting the continent and its diaspora’s achievement in fashion, music, culture and politics. Bi-monthly, and sold in worldwide, former cover stars include Naomi Campbell, Alek Wek, Liya Kebede, Alicia Keys, and interviews with Jay Z, Charlize Theron, Grace Jones, Denzel Washington, Erykah Badu.

Exclusives include behind-the-scenes access at Barack Obama’s inauguration, a World Cup 2010 report profiling players from all six African teams, and coverage of Alicia Keys’ Keep A Child Alive Black Ball, for which ARISE was the media sponsor.

As part of ARISE’s continuing commitment to highlighting talent, ARISE has hosted several fashion and music events in major cities. ARISE Magazine Fashion Week - Lagos 2011 brought together over 50 designers from Africa and the diaspora, and featured concerts by Estelle and Tinie Tempah. We also have a staple show at NYFW in September. For S/S 2012, Ozwald Boateng, Maki Oh, Tsemaye Binitie, Gavin Rajah and Tiffany Amber are set to grace the runway.
