#MBFWCT | David Tlale

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.

#MBFWCT | Adriaan Kuiters

Set at the Iziko National Gallery in Company Gardens, Adriaan Kuiters show created an intimate atmosphere with a London like feel. Amidst all the bold local paintings and given my developing love for all things art, I greatly feared that the  S/S13 collection would fade amongst the art pieces, quite contrary,  although muted and minimalistic, the clever use of all voluminous embracing sleeves, fabric choices and styling gave the collection a striking definition.  Adriaan Kuiters also showcased women's collection for the 1st time, to couple with the menswear, offering a  simply light, well constructed  collection with a sense harmonious androgyny.
