TA L K T O M E
@emiliegambade
@EmilieGambade
At the 2015 Design Indaba in Cape Town, international trend and fashion forecaster
Lidewij Edelkoort declared, in a passionate expos tinged with nostalgia, fashion
is dead; this is the end of fashion as we know it, presenting the fashion industry as
aridiculous and pathetic parody of what it has been.
Edelkoorts statement was backed by a 10-point printed manifesto dubbed AntiFashion, 10 reasons why the fashion system is obsolete, reporting on issues like
education, manufacturing, marketing and even press and blogging. The commentary
underlines, for example, the perils of an industry that promotes the fast consumption
of clothes (and the substandard manufacturing of garments), or promotes monotonous
trend cycles; it also stresses the lack of pertinent criticism in fashion reporting and
the evil of marketing when it governs creativity.
As this team puts together our great Winter Fashion issue, I can only disagree.
Looking back at yesterdays fashion, you may certainly feel a shift, a substantial
difference: customers have become consumers, and at cheaper prices, fast-produced
collections fill our wardrobes, leaving little room for a long-lasting attachment to
aspecific garment or style. Fashion weeks have set a frantic pace that has collections
coming and going in a flash, and the survival of ancestral savoir-faire is constantly
challenged, existentially at times.
Yet, what might look like a fashion overload that prompts some experts to tumble into
nostalgia isnt necessarily endemic to fashion: it is but the reality of a world that has
been massively altered by the way we communicate, information flowing at us every
day in gigantic waves. Some carry pearls of creativity, some carry flops and parodies.
While years ago, fashion shows were experienced by only a lucky few and reviewed by
a handful of journalists (leaving the rest of the audience waiting for their influential
feedback), today, thanks to the internet and social media, collections are seen and
commented on instantaneously by many people, around the world. The walls of high
fashion have indeed tumbled, exposing it to millions.
Abundance might create confusion and an overwhelming feeling of more-is-more
to the point of overdose; but it is also creating fabulous opportunities to connect,
exchange and learn from each other. In Africa, designers today are showing energy
and creativity not seen before; the need to explore identity through the making of
clothes and accessories is ever-present and the hunger to use the elements of heritage
and local craftsmanship to create our own modern fashion(s) is increasing. Before
the internet and ubiquitous connection, it was nigh-impossible for them to make an
impact on a global scale; today, I am certain that Africa is the next big thing.
Like print, media and communication, fashion has indeed changed; there was no other
choice. Still, to set ourselves apart, we must keep producing meaningful content, striking
collections and fabulous imagery. We need to be curious, we must push boundaries, we
must dare to explore the unexplored, defy the challenges, be impeccable and always,
always risk going wrong; only then can beautiful things be made, fashions grow,
emotions flow, as you can see and feel on every page of this magazine.
The way we see it here at ELLE, fashion today is more exciting than ever. Long
may it live.
Dear You,
16

APPEAL
As buying and merchandise
director for Levis, Oliver Pywell
gives us a look into the world
of fashion, trends and all things
denim as he sees it
PERSONAL STYLE My style is a combination of 50s denim and 90s
grunge rock in lots of ways but pretty much head-to-toe denim most
of the time. JOB DESCRIPTION As buying and merchandise director for
Levis, I am responsible for all product in Africa, the Middle East and
Pakistan. FAVOURITE STYLE OF DENIM Definitely a slim straight fit, large
turn-up selvedge denim. NEXT UP FOR LEVIS The womens fit has been
reset from a brand point of view in ladieswear weve completely
rebuilt the fit platform across all of our womens finishes. DENIM GOALS
FOR 2015 To find a colour darker than black; to use less water when
washing my jeans; and to keep my jeans dirty for longer TOP DENIM
STYLES THIS SEASON The new 501 Customized and Tapered is one of
the best fits being introduced as well as boyfriend jeans, which are still
strong this season. I think the main trend in denim is that it has to be
authentic. MOST RECENT PURCHASE A black leather trucker jacket Ibought
in San Francisco. FAVOURITE RUNWAY DESIGNERS Would have to be Martin
Margiela and Yohji Yamamoto. TOP 3 DENIM TRENDS ARE Authentic
destruction and repair, blacks bleached to grey in all tones and stretch
selvedge super-skinnys. BEST COUNTRY VISITED IN THE PAST YEAR I did
lots of travelling last year! The most interesting places I went to were
Amman in Jordan and Tel Aviv in Israel but my favourite city has to be
San Francisco, which I visit regularly.

Denim, my goodness but its been in our midst for a very long time.
The question is, wheres it heading? Weve seen denim go from
distressed to dressed-up over the years and now denim on the
runway, more specifically Resort 2015, has set the bar for how we
should be wearing denim today. Dont get me wrong, those ripped,
stone-washed skinny jeans we all have or will still own years down
the line arent going anywhere. That old-school boxy denim jacket?
Keep it. What? You have a pair of unwashed, dark-blue flared
denims? Great! Now were talking. What Im saying is, all of the
above (at the rate of denim today, yesterday and tomorrow) will be
totally acceptable moving forward.
Although, just like anything in life or in the life of a hashtag,
somethings trending. This time, were seeing an incredible amount
of sophisticated, unwashed, double-duty denim pieces, the ones that
can take you from nine to five and beyond during the week. (Those
ripped skinny jeans can take a bit of a break and come out to play
on the weekend instead.) Designers have recently been going all-out
minimalist and somewhat glam. By glam I mean fuss free, chic,
structured and simple: longer-length belted jackets and pants at
Marques Almeida for Winter 2014. Belted mid-length
dresses (accompanied by knee-high boots) at Gucci
Resort 2015. That structured-unstructured jumpsuit
at Stella McCartney Spring 2015. Lea Peckres Winter
2015 collection of strapless side-slit dresses and boxy
top-and-pant suits.
Ok, moving on. Double denim. Heres a tip: when
wearing denim head to toe, I would suggest steering
clear of mixing washed with unwashed or even pairing
washed with washed. Distressed pieces almost need
that breather, something plain to bring it all together.
Unwashed denim, on the other hand, can be doubled
up by mixing a light blue with a dark blue, or even better, wearing
the same or similar shade of blue from top to toe. This makes sense,
right? Its like wearing head-to-toe black same concept.
Fancy those chunky block heels or tread loafers to complete your
look? No, not keen to give it a go? Listen, if its not for you, its not for
you, but Im certainly not going to miss out on this one. Just like my
leather biker jacket that I was avoiding because it seemed so rock
star, but which has become a go-to piece to pair with my heels or
crisp white shirt its how you wear it that counts.
This is exactly where minimalist denim is headed: down the
fast lane and most likely into your wardrobe. Like I said, keep
those skinny jeans, youll definitely need them, just like that leather
biker jacket, but you must agree that denim also has the right to be
sophisticated and lust-worthy. I mean, its a veteran in the fashion
world and yet is still being (credibly) reinvented. In fact, its had
aserious upgrade and Im ready to embrace it. Whos with me?

Liners never fail to appear
on the runway. The updated
version? Focus attention
on the lower lid either
by smudging the colour
underneath your lash line
as seen at Thakoon, or by
intensifying your gaze, filling
the waterline. If you prefer
the classic flick, give it atwist
by trying the look in
electric blue.

Designers opted for seemingly nude
faces where make-up barely showed.
The new no-make-up look features

glossed lids, lips or brows, highlighted
high points of the face, and dewy
complexions as seen at Giambattista
Valli, Stella McCartney and Paul Smith.

REPORT
Art has always provided a platform for subversiveness.
Today, the catwalk the showcase for a specific kind
of art is rapidly becoming the latest space where new
expressions of defiance are being made. Designers are
sending out clothes that do not sit comfortably within
the male/female dichotomy; androgynous models
cross over between sexes; make-up, garments, even
shoes are gender-ambiguous or neutral.
Earlier this year, at Paris Fashion Week, Miuccia
Prada posed the question, What are the unexpected
possibilities, the various relationships that may
occur between the way men and women can or
would dress?
She added, Gender is a context and often context
is gendered, before showing Pradas Autumn 2015
Menswear Collection that saw both male and
female models going down the ramp in similarly
structured jackets and coats, wearing the same
style of footwear. For the Gucci show, male models
wore pussy-bow blouses, a garment that is usually
regarded as strictly feminine.
Gender-benders, in whatever sphere, view
playing with masculine and feminine stereotypes
as a catalyst for change as both empowering and
liberating. French designer Coco Chanel was one
of the earliest, tossing aside those
stereotypes by creating fashionable
garments for women drawn from
traditionally male styling. During
the 1920s, when society expected
women to behave a certain way,
including the way they dressed,
Chanel had other ideas. Her
recreation of the loose jersey, an

born-frees, grappling with the legacy of apartheid
and a male-dominated society, but still looking to
the future, and creating new media, art and fashion
that reflect where we are and where we want to be,
says Saint Jude.
Is any of this likely to make a meaningful change
for people who identify as LGBTI? It is important
to distinguish between those who play with gender
expectations (whether for art, fashion or politics)
and those who identify as trans. Not to say that
one form is more legitimate than the other, or that
they are mutually exclusive, but they can hold very
different meanings for people.
For Busisiwe Deyi, Legal Research Coordinator
at the Gender Dynamix organisation the only
organisation in South Africa focused on transgender
issues gender-bending in performance (especially
in fashion) has pros and cons. On the one hand, such
visibility is important and creates an opportunity for
entities like Gender Dynamix to open the topic for
discussion. On the other hand, she notes that the
fashion business has a history of exploiting particular
struggles to further its own agenda, without regard
for its impact on the groups involved.
The problem in the fashion industry is that
people have the perception that transgenderism and
gender-queering are phases and/or temporary.
In reality, people who cannot access the necessary
healthcare are being bullied to the point of killing
themselves. The reality [of the lifestyle] is not
fashionable, she says. Pradas latest collection may
have been trendy, but is it really a testament to a
change in consciousness, that the trend subverts the
gender binary?
Whether or not its trendy to be androgynous,
the point is that Prada, a powerful name in fashion,
has identified this as an important moment in
contemporary culture, and is contributing towards
altering peoples perceptions of gender.
What is also inspiring is seeing people who
identify as transgender creating opportunities on the
world stage, to talk about pressing issues affecting
the LGBTI community. Deyi points to the example
of Laverne Cox, who stars in Orange Is The New Black
and recently made the cover of Time magazine.
Her visibility is affirming of trans experiences
and is affirming of the struggles that trans people
go through. Unlike the fashion industry, she has
a voice that she is using to address the realities of
trans people.
Conchita Wurst is another high-profile genderchallenger. Last year, the model and singer was
photographed in her lingerie for CR Fashion Book
and walked in Jean Paul Gaultiers Autumn/Winter
couture show. Although she has chosen to take on a
more feminine appearance, she has kept her beard,

In the summer of 2005, a fashion student from Spain, Ins Cuatrecasas, and her mother
travelled to Rwanda. While exploring the country, they met a dressmaker named
Antoinette, who inspired Cuatrecasas with her passion and determination to develop
clothing and accessories of international quality. In 2008, Cuatrecasas and her best
friend, Marc Oliver, returned to Rwanda to develop their first collection with Antoinette
and two local tailors. A year later, Mille Collines (French for a thousand hills) was born.
@mille_collines
Ever since Cuatrecasas and Oliver created Mille Collines, they have believed
in putting Africa first in the design of the products, the creation of the
team and the distribution channels. Today, Kenya has become one of
their biggest consumer markets and they have four stores in Nairobi alone.
The brand has evolved from its original muted tones with safari-fashion
appeal to become a blend of African culture and global trends. Their 2014
collection, shown at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Africa, is a walk through
one of the most emblematic neighbourhoods in Rwanda, Nyamijyosi. Boxy
silhouettes, hand-painted slogan sweaters, colourful street-art motifs, sporty
fabrics and splashes of suede and metallics offer a modern yet distinctly
made-in-Africa collection. For Cuatrecasas, Moving away from African
fabric was an important step Fashion in Africa is evolving. It cant just be
fitted into that box. The consumer wants more.
But meeting new demands doesnt mean neglecting ethical responsibility
behind the supply chain. Last November, the pair handed over their atelier
in Kigali and today, their Rwandan team fully owns the workshop, which
has become the best in the region. Mille Collines designs for the woman
who is not afraid of a world that is ever-changing, is brave and boldly
expresses who she is: Africa lives in her, says Cuatrecasas.

fight against malaria the leading killer of children under five in Africa by
educating them that elimination is ultimately possible.
The funds raised through Goodbye Malarias product range, which consists
of shweshwe lounge pants, Relate bracelets and Mashozi teddy bears, are

@FashRev_SAfrica
@Lalesso_
Alice Heusser and Oliva Kennaway are the co-creators and directors of Lalesso, a brand
founded upon a commitment to ethics and sustainability on a social and environmental
level. They believe in supporting local industry through manufacture of Lalesso products
while encouraging their client base to be aware of sustainably made clothing.
Heusser and Kennaway met while studying fashion design in Cape Town.
When a representative of the Ethical Fashion Forum from London gave a
talk in one of their classes about the importance of ethical fashion, they were
captivated. They were inspired by the opportunity to bring
change to certain industries on the continent, create jobs and
spread the message globally through their garments. Lalesso
currently produces two collections a year in both South Africa
and Kenya, directly and indirectly supporting an estimated
120 families in doing so.
Like many others around the world, the two took part in
Fashion Revolution Day last year, commemorating the collapse
in 2013 of Rana Plaza in Bangladesh, where 1133 factory
workers were killed. More than 60 countries are currently
represented in the now-annual initiative, involving designers,
academics, business leaders, parliamentarians, media and
consumers calling for a reform of the fashion supply chain.
Locally they are trying to make consumers aware of the
high cost of cheap fashion. With the catch phrase, Who
made my clothes? they ask consumers to consider this
question. I think it is safe to say we are living in a revolutionary era. I feel that
our generation in particular will be recognised for these movements. I think
it would be completely uncontemporary of us to not be promoting ethics and
sustainability through the work that we do, says Kennaway.
@Leopardfrock
Marianne Fassler is regarded as one of South Africas first ladies in fashion. She credits
the country itself as the driving force behind her successful career, which spans more
than three decades. I always encourage potential designers to start in their own
community, to know the service providers, she says. Fassler is an active member of
the Ubuntu at Work community, a social enterprise supplying ethically and sustainably
produced products. Although she is against co-operatives selling themselves on the
strength of upliftment, or sympathy for the unemployed, her fundamental values
lie in ethical business practice. Through her Leopard Frock range, she provides stable
employment for a highly skilled workforce as well as mentorship to aspiring designers.

FIRST LOOK
If my life was a book, I would like it to be called
As Simple as a Smile; as Loud as aLaugh,
says Tarryn Oppel as she places in front of
her some of her wardrobe favourites: a leather
biker jacket by Mango, a pair of Stan Smiths, a
V-neck jersey and a slogan jersey by H&M and
a Louis Vuitton Speedy bag with T.O on it.
This is the one item that I am still pinching
myself over! It is that one thing that youd pass
down to your daughter, and her daughter
Its very special.
If there were a way to label the young senior
fashion editors style, it would have to fall
somewhere between contrasted simplicity and
sophisticated pop. If you had to describe her
personality, it would be something between a
gentle smile and a spurt of laughter, a layer
of coolness covering a composite of delicate
expressions of emotions, bursts of talent, wild
creativity and an ability to think fast on her feet.
Page through her fashion shoots and you will
see the same contrasts: here, the refinement
of simplicity and minimalism, there, the
exuberance of youth or the precise clash of
bright colours and prints. Oppel manages to
swing between influences, trends and seasons
with the agility of a cat. Her style involves
strong, reliable and effective pieces that allow
her to go from important launches to long
days of shooting (shes been known to be
on her knees, removing the sand off a models
shoes on a remote beach). I realised that I was
someone who wanted to stand out but not let
my clothes do all the work. Its important for
me to exist in spite of my clothes, to be more
than what Iwear; if I can do that while looking
sophisticated and chic, then so much the better.
Her daily outfits shift between classic neutrals
(shes just bought a beautiful sleeveless wool
coat from Country Road that she cannot wait to
wear when the temperatures drop), composed
prints and zests of vibrant colours, hair simply
tucked up or loose on her shoulders, a light
touch of make up, nothing in excess.
But excess is not in Oppels vocabulary, nor
is it in her wardrobe, except when it comes
to footwear. A self-confessed shoe-hoarder,
she explains that, When it comes to shoes,
Istruggle with size (I wear a UK 3), so if I see
something with either the digits 36 or 3 on it, I
buy it because theyre such rare finds. With 70
pairs in her wardrobe ranging from high heels
(her favourite is a pair of ankle strap heels from
Zara) to sneakers I have a sneaker obsession

I F
WHO AM I?
From fashion to fragrance, each Priv
scent is conceived with the same attention
to detail that goes into creating a haute
couture garment, and I am no exception.
I am a celebration of the peony flower,
abeloved symbol of the Chinese empire.
Like a love rekindled, the peony is a flower
that is reborn every year, representing
happiness, grace and prosperity.

FAMILY CONNECTIONS
I have three twin sisters. We are all Zen
masters at heart, conjuring mysterious
gardens and fragrant dreams. Vtiver
Babylone is cool, calm and collected
with her untamed nature and earthy
scents. Rose Alexandrie is delicate yet
strong, as her powdery yellow mimosa
absolu blends with the freshness of
bergamot to give way to a rich, heady
scent. Figuier Eden is the sweet and
spirited sister, her fragrance of fig trees
and lingering amber woods recreating
a Mediterranean paradise.
THE BOTTLE
I am housed in the classic Les Eaux
bottle. My lines are clean and
transparent, offering a window to the
golden crystalline fragrance within.
Inspired by the perfect pebbles of a Zen
garden, my stone-capped lid takes on
a smooth and sculptural form, adding to
my organic essence and feel.

Hair needs to be present for the IPL laser to work. Dont

Results so far: I have had two sessions and the results are

appears within two days after shaving) began to regrow only
about four days after the treatment. The hair also seems

WHEN TO GO Best time: the cooler spring months between August and October.
Avoid February to May when the weather is hot and humid, and the rainy season forces some hotels to close.

In order to create
abeautiful object, you
have to experiment. Only
through testing your ideas
can you see possible results.
For example, we wanted the
dress to appear airy while
maintaining a silhouette that

We tested various textiles in
