Videofashion news. South African finesse. Volume 31, Episode 47

Description

In this issue of Videofashion, we travel to Johannesburg for South Africa Fashion Week, where we’ll introduce you to a group of designers who, while rooted in their native Africa, are poised to bring their modern fashions to the rest of the world! We visit the studio of the “godfather of South African fashion”, Clive Rundle, before he shows a vibrant, sexy new collection. Perfectly poised between city and nature, the chic designs from Lunar are all crafted from natural and/or organic fabrics. Colleen Eitzen, Terrence Bray, and Abigail Betz present their latest beautifully crafted collections in a group show. After their fairy-tale presentation, the designers behind the cool, experimental label Black Coffee, take us to some of their favorite boutiques in the hip neighborhood of Melville. We round up a promising group of Emerging Designers and check out the elegant goddess-inspired gowns from local favorite Marion & Lindie. Plus, we tour the factory of Via la Moda, where exotic crocodile and ostrich skins are finessed into elegant handbags and accessories.
