Your African fashion news & careers update for 9 June 2025.

Good morning Operators,

No thoughts to share today but I wanted to say 2 things:

  • Thank you for reading The Fashion Operator šŸ™‚ Thanks for sharing it, responding to it, liking posts about it on socials, sending kind and encouraging words about it — everything. I really do appreciate you being here.

  • If you haven’t taken the survey yet, this is another reminder. Knowing who is reading helps me make changes, identify your needs, all of that (responding to tell me what you need helps too!)

Have a lovely week!

With thanks,
Modupe
