The fourth edition of the Hot Pink Catwalk Charity Fashion show took place on Saturday November 16 at Victoria Mall, Entebbe organized by Malengo Foundation.

The Hot Pink Catwalk Charity Show was not short of fun as models boldly showcased different designs inspired by local designers. Some of the designers included; Kas Wear, Anita Beryl, Brenda Maraka, Kaijuka Abbas, Nanfuka Olivia, Martha Jabo and Paple Rayn among others.

We witnessed models who are amputees, persons with albinism, little people, burn victims, wheelchair users, deaf and hard for hearing as well as able-bodied models walking the runway.
