Lunar: was a steady climb from cool to happy as silk fabrics with color palettes like gray, blue and cool yellow/gold complimented classic shapes to evoke a relaxed state of mind and fine fluidity.

Story: Every woman has a story. The label "Story" understands this. Its collection in organic/beige tones of silk and linen fabrics translates into womanly stories of sleek, sexy, mature and unequivocal beautiful confidence.

Bongiwe Walaza: is adept at making a woman look sassy and sexy in her designs. The designer displayed brilliant cuts of shwe shwe contrasted with color palettes of rich browns and gold.

Clive Rundle: came to play this summer! His use of vibrant colorful fabrics such as yellow and purple while "maintaining the sexy" is sweet! Most of his collection can be worn as is or deconstructed for a day at the office.

I love Leroy: With fun, flirty floral print dresses matched with bolero type jackets in neutral tones, what is there not to love about Leroy?

Poetry: Ladybrille's Poetry for you: Relaxed fit is in. Bold colors are in. And, clothes like Poetry's that make all say, to you, “hey, beautiful!” is definitely in!

Mantsho: Palesa Mokubung, the designer behind the Mantsho line who previously worked for SA’s Stoned Cherie, shows she is a force to be reckoned with via her functional, African inspired yet cosmopolitan collection.

Thando Zamxaka: has a fresh take on shwe shwe with the line's artistic yet functional silhouettes.
