A photographer was present and documented the well-presented collection. The models were free to do as they pleased on the runway, and their authenticity brought more light to the runway.

A scholar at UWC, Skhona Mkhize, filmed and posted the fashion show on TikTok yesterday and generated 12.9K views. South Africans were stunned by the brilliance and double checked if the institution was correctly represented.

Mkhize captioned her now-viral clip:

“We had so much fun.”

Mzansi’s version of quiet luxury 

Quiet luxury has become a popular aesthetic among the influencer community around the world, but Mzansi is still stuck on big logos to measure one’s success. News 24 shared that Harper’s Bazaar highlighted the aesthetic focus on investment pieces to emphasise high-quality basics, subtle hues, and fine tailoring.

Mzansi has an expressive culture therefore it is near impossible to have the same version of quiet luxury as other countries. South Africans do not fill their closets with neutral pieces but instead invest in high quality garments that help express who they are from within.
