LAILA BADEROON

We really liked Local Durban girl Laila’s relaxed easy going style- she designs clothes that she would love to wear! Accented with limeĀ  green and accessorised with handmade floral brooches Laila’s collection was fun and girly! Well done Laila!


ELME BEKKER

We loved Elme’s illustrations and astral prints from the get go and couldn’t wait to see them come to life! Her ‘green cutting’ concept and belief in fashion needing to be about something more than making beautiful things left us thinking- we can’t wait to see what Elme does next!
