Subtle patterns and African artifacts bring a chic touch to the plush, airy interior of the Saxon Hotel. This acts as the perfect backdrop to the House Of Kongo fashion show in association with the Maboneng Fashion Week. This trendsetting event was established by Maria Foster as a platform for designers to showcase street fashion through creativity and a passion for Maboneng.
The fashion designer behind the emerging label House of Kongo, knows a thing or two about uncomplicated elegance. Her mission is to dress women in pieces that embody a certain relaxed yet refined, nonchalant yet impeccably constructed look. For inspiration, Foster looks to Paris, Antwerp, and New York. Her latest collection embodies the spirit of elegance in the city. Though the offerings swerve more in the casual-cool direction, they’re still imbued with Maria’s signature sophistication.A city we believe will be elevated by benefiting from new themes as well as extended media coverage.
For the smaller brands and designers, Maboneng Fashion Week will serve as an opportunity to increase economic development in the area of fashion design and to enhance the visibility of the nation’s capital as a center of international fashion. Maboneng Fashion Week will be held in October 2017.
