Review: AFI Africa Fashion Week 2010

OMG!! First of all, for a woman who calls herself a “designer”, Bonang didn’t step up to the peddle still, because the dress she wore for the S.A.B.C coverage was rather “sloppy” and “disturbing”.

David Tlale’s new hairstyle, WOW (not in a good way)!!! And was it really necessary that he showed his collection at Midnight?? I mean it wasn’t even that good!

Now that that’s out of the way, we can get down to real fashion. Personally I was really impressed with the Somalian born and American based twins, whom their brand “MATAANO” in my opinion was the freshest, most elegant and sophisticated collection at the Africa Fashion Week.
