The event was sponsored by the Medicaid Cancer Foundation (MCF).[2][3][4][5] Other sponsors included Dunes Center, Pandora, Nestle brand Maggi, Vlisco and Arith & Paul.
Hayati Fashion Week was created as a response to a perceived lack of representation of modest fashion on major Nigerian fashion platforms. It has provided designers, models, artists and other businesses in the Nigerian modest fashion industry, a platform to showcase their work, directly.[6]
