By BigEyeUg Team Renowned fashion designer Joe Malaika is preparing for his highly anticipated annual fashion event, EXCESSIVE FASHION. The show will take place on December 8th, 2024, at the Sheraton Hotel in Boston, Massachusetts. This event will bring together the world of fashion and philanthropy, with proceeds going towards amputees in Uganda who lack access to health insurance for prosthetic limbs. Malaika, an inclusive designer, has been celebrated for his contributions to the fashion industry. He has received recognition from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the City of Boston as one of the top designers in the region.
