Durban Fashion Fair ends with a bang

The Durban Fashion Fair came to a close after a fun, high-fashion-filled weekend at Suncoast.

THE glittering Durban Fashion Fair (DFF), now in its fourth year, was hosted by Idols SA judge Somizi Mhlongo ended on a high note on Saturday night with the first ever Durban Fashion Fair Recognition Awards held at Suncoast's SUNdeck.

Top of the pops was the 2015 Durban Designer of the Year, Zama Mathe, and her brand Zarth who was one of 55 participating designers to take the ultimate accolade.

This was a particularly special moment for the eThekwini municipality which created the DFF to nurture young talent and support the development of new designers, as Mathe first showed her designs on the DFF ramp in 2013 and was awarded a sponsored internship to Milan as a result.

The Durban Fashion Legend Award went to another Durban success story, Andre Martin of Life.
