ROSENWERTH
The first collection shown on the evening was that of Rosenwerth: the design house, which showed at the first ever CTFW, is celebrating its golden anniversary this year and did so with a showing of its hallmark timeless elegance. Opening the runway presentation was a selection of feminine outfits, in head-to-toe white. The bridge featured eye-catching prints, after which the show was closed with eveningwear in black, and pops of striking colour (including yellow, orange, red and purple)
Celebrating 50 years of dressing SA's stylish women, Rosenwerth collection was a hit.
PHILOSOPHY
Philosophy’s Jenni Button presented her show next. The designer, whose vision for a fun, eclectic summer was evident, delivered a range of wide-ranging prints. Classic silhouettes formed blank canvases, showcasing the designer’s understanding of statement-prints. From graphics to florals, artworks to animal print, this collection offers something for everyone and every occasion.
PKLUK CGDT.
The spectacular evening was closed by the latest collection of design duo and fashion favourites Klûk CGDT. The presentation, inspired by the magic and fantasy of “Bedtime Stories”, is already being described by many of the media as one of the most memorable Fashion Week moments ever.
The explosive finale at the Kluk CGDT show will go down as one of the most memorable shows at CTFW.
