David Tlale's A/W2011

There has been lot of anticipation and hype around David Tlale's show.The show gave a somewhat dramatic close to the Joburg fashion week at the Nelson Mandela Bridge, some called it the grand night of bliss.

the collection featured 92 garments, which featured hats, body-suites, chiffon flowing dresses with rather safe colours with most being red,black and white. each of the garments was said to be celebrating a day in the life of Utata Nelson Mandela. I watched as the unfolded on twitter, (where some got really aggressive, because yet again the show was somewhat odd two hours late, i watched with amazement as everyone's tweets drew down to " it better be worth the wait". the question is was it? i certainly think not,i feel the collection was rather safe and NOTHING was extraordinary but here are some of my favorites.

Oh! Where the garmets really 92?
