Arise magazine: Africa's fashion bible
Of course, many of the models and designers are African American/British.
'Arise magazine: Africa's fashion bible'
http://edition.cnn.com/2012/10/02/world/africa/arise-magazine-fashion/index.html
In the heart of London, one of the style capitals of the world, African fashion has found its new home.
Based in the UK capital's bustling center, Arise calls itself Africa's first and foremost global style and culture magazine. The bimonthly publication, which has so far been printed 16 issues, first hit the newsstands in 2009 and is now sold in 26 countries across the world.
Its illustrious pages are striking a chord with what the magazine calls Afropolitans -- a new generation of young and urban "Africans of the world" who breathe fashion and are fascinated by arts and culture.

Combines two of my favorite things -- black folks and fashion.
And it's apparently available worldwide.
