FASHION AND MUSIC



In the late 1990s and early 2000s, Malawian music legends like Lucius Banda, the late Vic Marley, and Evison Matafale were at the forefront of the industry. However, fashion was not a top priority for these icons. Their main focus was on captivating audiences with their music rather than making a fashion statement.

Their music videos and live shows often featured them in casual, laid-back outfits, mirroring the chill vibes of the era. Female dancers rocked flared jeans, backless tops, and blended in with the crowd.

Fast forward to today's Malawian music scene, and a noticeable shift towards fashion is apparent. Artists have become trendsetters, pushing boundaries and reshaping the industry's aesthetic. This change is largely driven by the desire to compete on a global scale. Collaborations between musicians and fashion designers have further emphasized the importance of style in the music world.

Designers now collaborate closely with artists to create outfits that complement their music and personal style. Fashion designer Xandria agrees with the artists, acknowledging the evolving fashion landscape in the music industry. These collaborations have sparked creativity and diversity in the industry, with artists embracing various styles and influences.

Fans have also embraced fashion as a crucial element of the music experience, enjoying the visual flair that artists bring to their performances and productions.
