The “1,000 Men” event, famous for assembling a thousand sharply dressed men in bespoke suits, is more than a fashion showcase. It’s a symbol of unity, ambition, and African entrepreneurship, encouraging young men to dress with purpose, network, and build community.

Oscar Kampala, at just 24, has built one of East Africa’s most influential fashion brands. Known for tailoring suits worn by African celebrities and business leaders, he champions fashion as a tool for empowerment — redefining what it means to be a modern African businessman.

Choosing Nairobi as the next stop signals the brand’s regional expansion and aims to unite East African youth around style, confidence, and enterprise. The event is expected to attract entrepreneurs, creatives, and media from across the continent, serving as both a cultural statement and a networking platform.

Ultimately, the Nairobi edition represents more than fashion — it’s a movement inspiring a generation of young African men to rise, lead, and look the part.
