CAPE TOWN FASHION WEEK: AN AFFAIR TO REMEMBER!







Every year beautiful and fabulous fashionista's arrive at the Cape Town International Convention Centre to discuss the future of fashion and this season it wasn't any different. As the spotlight turned on beautiful clothes by South Africa's finest and up coming designers exuded on the runway leaving the crowd awed in their seats. The Kluk/CGDT duo was by far my favourite show this year and reminded me why I love and appreciate the art of fashion with their sheer dresses and swishy high waisted skirts that made my heart skip a beat. The production was absolutely AMAZING and I couldn't have asked for anything more. Another designer that blew me away was Ruff Tung designer Jean-Paul Botha who created amazing print one shoulder dresses and very well tailored high waisted shorts that made fashionista's jump off their seats. Very ruffled body conscious dresses and white angelic dresses as I call them flowed on the Ruff Tung runway leaving the audience amazed with their mouths wide open.

Menswear brand Viyella certainly didn't make us forget him with his very relaxed collection and earthy chic neutral tone colours they used this season. Their collection was inspired by a journey around Africa and in each city they visit is an inspiration to the clothes. Extremely well tailored tuxedo's and man bags that every man should have this coming spring season. What enchanted me more about the Viyella collection was the refinement of the clothes because men want to be relaxed as well as sophisticated.
