Edward Enninful & Bernardine Evaristo in Conversation at Royal Northern College of Music

From a childhood in Ghana watching his mother’s dressmaking, to teenage years in London modelling and styling, to coming out and a challenging relationship with his father, to the youngest fashion director at an international publication, to taking grunge mainstream, to showcasing and celebrating Black women, to becoming the first Black editor-in-chief of British Vogue, to his marriage to his long-term partner Alec, Edward Enninful has been A Visible Man and a pioneer. He will be in conversation with fellow game-changer Bernardine Evaristo about his life, his work, his experiences in the world of fashion and his commitment to inclusion and representation. Bernardine Evaristo is a prolific writer and the first Black woman and Black British person to win the Booker Prize for her novel Girl, Woman, Other.
