The excitement and anticipation to the opening of Topshop in Cape Town was rather too much to be kept bottled, which lead to the development of stalker tendencies, I kid you not. I followed the Topshop and Topman street team on three various occasions, hoping to be one the recipients of the gift cards the were giving away, I was however unfortunate at the quest. Yes sweets! it's totes true, über-edgy street style retailer Topshop with a division of Topman has finally landed in the Mother City and found a perfect home at the V&A Waterfront. I was fortunate enough to get an event to the launch, fashion media and fashion enthusiasts gathered to admire the 960 square meter of clothing, shoes, accessories and cosmetics line. From trendy OTT footwear to London inspired edgy-chic streets clothing, the store has it all. The quality range on offer is updated on a weekly basis and it's in line with any other Topshop | Topman store in the global village so be prepared to be spoilt for choice. Topshop | Topman also a premium in-house designed collections, Unique for the ladies and Topman design for the gents available only twice a year.

Using raw, untreated denim, the DIESEL+EDUN collection was built around a
reinterpretation of the four-pocket jean of the 1970s popular on the

lining and across the jersey pieces in the collection. Embroidery
details reference traditional Zulu weaving patterns, while the dresses
feature Kenyan metalwork. Running through the collection are four
original symbols designed to reflect the heart of the DIESEL+EDUN
collection.
