Afropunk Paris. The annual and infamously black arts festival has been celebrated in Paris, France for the past two years; 11 years after it’s initial debut in Brooklyn, New York.

Paris has a large and often unseen black population however it was in full force at the festival, which also saw black people flock from around the world, including the UK and America, to attend.

Whilst Paris is well known for it’s Parisian and Caucasian fashion, this style of chic was absent. Afropunk fashion is always unapologetically black, regardless of the location. We captured some of the best looks of Afropunk Paris this year.
