Fundudzi by Craig Jacobs
Craig Jacobs' Autumn/Winter collection blended traditional elements with sports luxe detailing. He relied on the use of mesh to add texture while capturing an innately African image through the use of a traditional blanket. This collection emphasised comfort and wearability. We loved the use of the blanket as a sweater or a skirt and would have liked to have seen even more of this.  |

This collection was inspired by balance: basics balanced out with couture tailoring. It channelled different forms of femininity from Grecian flowing gowns to simpler silhouettes. Bow detail at the collar was a staple of many of the pieces and added an old-world flair to the collection. Hand-crafted detailing and texture stood out while the more dramatic pieces looked great on the runway. As with many collections this season, the collection combined black and white to make the strongest statements.
