The Magic of Franschhoek
Franschhoek’s rolling vineyards and majestic mountains created a magical setting for the evening. The fusion of beauty, culture, and nature made the show a sensory delight. Bonang captured the sentiment perfectly, saying:
“Franschhoek is pure magic. It’s the perfect setting to celebrate our nation’s incredible talent.”
With its celebration of South African creativity and empowerment, the ‘Walk Your Worth’ fashion show was more than an event—it was a testament to the power of fashion to inspire and unite.
A Fusion of Fashion and Culture
Inspired by L’Oréal Paris’ iconic “Le Défilé” in Paris, the Franschhoek show brought together South Africa’s finest designers. Rich Mnisi, Tshepo Jeans, KLûK CGDT, and Mantsho showcased collections that blended modernity with South African heritage. Each piece highlighted the vibrancy and creativity of the local fashion scene.
