Amidst the South African fashion landscape, a revolution is unfolding, and it’s elegantly draped in the fabric of ethical fashion. The South African Fashion Week (SAFW), in its Autumn/Winter 24 fashion week, has taken center stage, breathing life into the idea that style can coexist harmoniously with consciousness.
From October 19th to October 21st, 2023, SAFW has metamorphosed into a radiant beacon of ethical fashion, transcending the boundaries of mere clothing to become a vibrant tapestry of values. The Mall of Africa serves as the grand canvas where seasonal fashion collections, retailing, media partnerships, and collaborations come together to create an awe-inspiring spectacle. However, SAFW’s beauty goes beyond the garments; it’s about a commitment to fashion that respects the planet and its people of diverse beauty.
