S/S Ladies South African Trends Pret-a-Porter

By

Cape town leads South Africa in the fashion world with a clothing industry rooted in the unique history and cultural traditions of many heritages, including Dutch Afrikaans, English South African, Indian, Indonesian, Malaysian, Xhosa and Zulu, Cape Town designers have embraced an ethical fashion ethos that celebrates fair labor, eco-friendly production and the city’s myriad of ethnic roots.Poised on the edge of the Indian and Atlantic Oceans, the city yields a rich history of tapestries from the Southeast, tribal African crafts and English and Dutch Afrikaans influences.

Designers look to their past to blend traditional designs with contemporary style, ethnic influences and locally crafted materials, embracing their roots while forging a new path through South Africa’s budding fashion industry.The young, artistic city known for surfing, design and extreme sports, has embraced a DIY mentality bred from an attitude of determination and self-sufficiency born from its location on the tip of a historically overlooked continent. This is today's modern South African woman much like those runways in New York and Milan with it's bold color scheme and cutting edge designs, if you plan on hitting up South Africa be on your style game ladies.

Spotlight On:The New It Girl Jessica Burciaga

By
She has it all from the girl next door appeal, to extreme sex appeal. I first took notice of her when I saw the Jamie Foxx ft Drake "Fall For Your Type" video and to be honest I had to take a sceond glance because I really thought that she was JLO. It wasnt until recently when I actually found out who this stunning beauty is who looks like she could be Jennifer Lopez's little sister. Jessica Burciaga (born April 11, 1983) is an American model . Her father is Mexican and her mother is French and Irish .
