Photobucket

Spotted at the AFI Fashion Week launch in Johannesburg last week was Stiaan Louw (with Joe from Jaylowlovesyou). We were able to discuss some of the treats lined up for his new collection but mums the word. Here is a list of designers showing next month.




  • Suzaan Heyns, a Joburg label that pushes the boundaries in ready-to-wear fashion, appealing to strong-willed women;
  • Errol Arendz, whose luxury fashion brands, DuSud and EA Ready to Wear, have a sleek and glamorous feel with delicate military touches;
  • KlûkCGDT, a label that represents the merging of two designers dedicated to each garment with careful attention and dedication to detail;
  • LISP, which is about living out rock and roll, with an autumn / winter collection drawing inspiration from the late 1960s and early 1970s;
  • Wild Fig, a woman’s clothing label that makes the wearer feel feminine and beautiful;
  • Spero Villioti, who for the past 25 years has been viewed as the leading haute couture label in Joburg;
  • Abigail Betz, winner of the Best Couture Collection award, whose designs are characterised by femininity and romance;
  • Karabo Finger, a specialty fashion brand focusing on women’s career, cocktail and lifestyle wear;
  • Distinctive Wear, which creates clothes for sophisticated men;
  • Avant for Gaschette, which notes that “inspiration from Joburg comes mainly from what is taken in visually and experiences on a sensory level on a day-to-day basis”;
  • Grapevine, a new Joburg label;
  • Bongiwe Walaza, who uses African prints strongly in her garments;
  • Stiaan Louw, with his menswear;
  • Thula Sindi, who designs clothing for elegant and mature women;
  • Abigail Keats, whose signature style is best described as a sophisticated contemporary art form that plays with the paradox of masculine tailoring;
  • Tart, which focuses on leisurewear;
  • Loin Cloth and Ashes, which focuses on dresses for women who dare to be different;
  • Heni, who won the Vodacom Durban July fashion challenge in 2007; and
  • David Tlale, a home-grown label that stands out for its elegantly designed garments.
