Sabrina Mahfouz - London's Wardrobe
Sabrina Mahfouz a British-Egyptian poet who has always been interested in the sartorial efforts of Londoners.
With the theme of migration, she has written a poem called London's Wardrobe and decided to go on a journey documenting Africa's historical links to the very clothes and styles found on the high streets of the British capital.
The poem is part of a Focus on Africa series on Spoken Word artists from the African diaspora in the UK. Our series was inspired by the Âé¶¹Éç 1Xtra ‘Words First’ season.
