New Designers Rock it at Capetown Fashion Week

Capetown Fashion Week kicked off on Wednesday which was due to be the show to showcase the newest and upcoming fashion designers to come out of Capetown's fashion scene.

Designers included the likes of Fresh Wear, Lalesso and Doreen Southwood.

The theme for Fashion Week this year..New World Africa meaning both the redefining of the continent locally and internationally and a celebration of the opportunities of 21st Century Africa.

Seems that it's all about the prints this year as most of the designers had rather simple designs. You can see the subtle African influence with all the designer's designs, which really makes them their own and really shows to the public that it's all about African culture over there.

The week is sponsored by Virgin Mobile and Loreal and ends on August 16th.
