The current SA Fashion Week has proven once again that South Africans are about more than brannas and coke and crime. We have style. And loads of it. Designers Gert-Johan Coetzee, Clive Rundle, Colleen Eitzen and Erre have come up with designs that are redolent of old Hollywood. Black Coffee delivered diaphanous dresses that are wildly poetic. What’s not to love about all of this. Out with the ugly and in with the lovely!
