African Renaissance - Faces of Africa Collection
The modern African woman is strong and proud of her heritage.
Unless you're lucky enough to be invited to a traditional wedding ceremony it has become more and more difficult to experience traditional culture in South Africa over recent years. But that does not mean that the women of Africa have turned their backs on their tribal heritage in pursuit of the latest fashions and trends from New York and Milan.
Instead, I have been inspired by images of beautiful, proud African women gracing the covers of glossy magazines, dressed in outfits that reflect the bright colours and designs of traditional African culture.
So in my African Renaissance series, I have attempted to embrace and celebrate the African woman's diverse accomplishments and aspirations in modern society.
