David Tlale hit it out of the park for me. His show titled, "I am not coloured, I am colour" took place in the middle of a closed street in the Bo-kaap where the quaint pastel houses were the ultimate backdrop for an all-white collection. The title says it all as the absence of colour in the garments emphasize the character of them hence of the proverbial "color". Great collections tell a story and are solidly cohesive. I am dying over the ombre stockings and his strong and interesting cuts. Add delightful embelishments and delicate fabrics and you have juxtaposition fashion heaven. I seriously loved the paneled men's blazer which reminded me of grading blocks while pattern cutting. What a breath of fresh air. 

Spero Villioti knows that glam beach hats are my wallet's kryptonite. So here's the deal, summer 2010, I got my hands on an awesome white floppy sunhat. The water warped it after I fell into the pool so summer 2011, I picked a new one up but I packed it in for my Mediterranean cruise and ended up leaving it in the cabin #whitegirlproblems. So there I was, watching a pretty beachwear collection, cursing my clumsiness. I really enjoyed the show, Missoni-esque zig zags, a healthy dose of nautical and chic black & white wraps. Hand me a cocktail as soon as the sun comes out.

Tart was light and cute featuring v necklines, bright dresses, a few fun prints and some cool velvet shorts. Models gleefully threw their clutches to the guests at the end of the show. You can view the entire collection on Facebook!
