#MBFWCT | David Tlale

23 August 2013


Obvz, the Mercedes Benz Cape Town Fashion Week wrapped a couple week back and considering the formidable amount of partying I was serving the eve prior to David Tlale's S/S14 showcase and the lack of sleep thereof, missing the show was somewhat disappointing. To be utterly frank I was never dazzled by David's dramatic offside location choices, however I invariably have great respect to what he offers.

With a primary focus on menswear, David offered an amazing collection that truly celebrates spring/summer season. The well assembled collection was total a winner, featuring finely tailored ready to wear suits in print and ombre-like effect, short shorts in teal and yellow with a pop of shiny gold in some pieces and of course the classic black and white, I can only dream of owning the entire collection.

#MBFWJ | David Tlale

9 March 2013

Yesterday marked day 2 of the MBFWJ, where we saw South African design heavy weights such as David Tlale and Thula Sindi  ( Review on Thula Sindi to follow) showcased their A/W2013 collections. David Tlale held an exclusive showcase at the Legislature/city hall piazza  to offer
 a collection that is a somewhat Deja vu from his latest offering at NYFW. A modern day unapologetic  Golden Prince and Princess in Asian Indian influences with metallics prints and details of gold and silver. Daring and bold brocade in tones of classic black and a touch OX blood. The static models created some bit of drama and opulence. The menswear however was something I haven't seen before. Here are some of my favs.
