The stores had a modern aesthetic with gorgeous statement pieces that amazed many of Ackermans Women’s core fans. One South African woman and self proclaimed yapper, Zethu Gqola shared her two cents on the new brand on the block.

Gqola started by completing Ayana’s online shopping system by saying:

“I put in my order on Friday morning, by close of business by Friday, I had my order.”

When Gqola received her package, she was quite disappointed by the quality of her items. Her pair of heels was slightly damaged and the quality was underwhelming.

The fashion enthusiast also ordered a R700 ribbed dress that she was fond of and a spacious purse. Gqola also purchased a brooch that she styled on camera.
