Back from South Africa
FashionCapital has now returned from a highly successful and thought provoking trip to South Africa.
The two main objectives of the trip were firstly to source up and coming design talent to bring back to the UK market and ultimately sell on asos.com and the second to source beading and craft work from the crafters of the Fashion Fusion project which then links to the work Fashion Enter is doing at The Workshop with Haringey Council.
A huge thank you to all the companies who took time out to meet with us and of course Masana Chikeka and Lindi Ndebele from the Department of Arts and Culture who made the trip possible.
Watch this space!
