African Prints! David Tlale’s black and white animal printed chiffon creations and an elaborate, ombre-dyed tulle shawl with cascading beaded neckpiece down the centre of the dress. Leigh Schubert’s sheer cascading cream creation flows beautifully down the runways. For the guys, Life by Andre Martin was all about denim and PVC with metal-studded black strips and accents of red.
