“Africa’s global lifestyle magazine”, ARISE has released their 10th Issue just in time for the World Cup which is currently being held in South Africa.
The issue features Sudanese supermodel, Alek Wek on the cover. Wek is garbed in a cut-out black swimsuit and is photographed clutching a ‘Jabulani’ / World Cup ball.
The magazine also features interviews and profiles of Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan, celebrity Jeweller Chris Aire and Nigerian Super Eagles Captain Nwankwo Kanu.

Looks good but we’ll say it again – we need to see more African designers’ pieces being used in ARISE!

Here are some more photos from the World Cup themed editorial featuring Alek Wek, Oluchi Onweagba, Gracie Cavalho, Georgie Badiel, Aminata Niara and Nana Kieta.

Here are some excepts from the previous issue of ARISE (Issue 9) – Beautiful
