African Fashion Week has been a wonderful break to all the football madness although the seats were sadly empty for the first shows of the afternoon. I wish all those who had no football to watch could have been invited to witness our slick fashion teams at work.
This first pic is of the David Tlale midnight show which was vintage Tlale glamour with a full orchestra and an opera diva accompanying the collection. (Thanks Dion Chang for your twitter pic!)

AFI chairman Dr Precious Moloi Motsepe was there till the bitter end in a beautiful orange silk wrap and LBD.

New York designer Laquan Smith is on this afternoon. He’s dressed Gaga, Rihanna and Vogue’s Andre Leon Talley has tipped him as the next big thing. He says to expect lots of party-inspired clothing, string vests, lame and plenty of sparkle. But he’s going to keep it “very Chanel”, says Laquan. I can’t wait!

I am in love with these gorgeous military coats from show producer, stylist and designer Shaldon Kopman and his team at Naked Ape. Unathi is gorgeous in the red but I also love Shaldon’s green. They’re a limited edition for the World Cup and would be perfect to wear to the next night game. Call Shaldon on 083 628 4049 if you’d like to try one.
