Our journey is to say that anything that is made in Africa is right because no one does it like we do as Africans. We are the loudest. We know how to put colour together, put fashion together,” he said.

All our heritage and cultures are being taken away from us, made in Europe or China, brought back to us, but 10 times or 100 times more expensive.” Tlale said it was high time to start believing that Africans could do it just like Europeans or Americans. “Let us be patriotic and let’s love what young designers are doing. I am very excited about this collaboration because it is nurturing young designers and I am all about that,”. Select options This product has multiple variants.
