JOZI FASHION WEEK LIGHTS UP
Bhala bhala mabhalane… remembering Brenda Fassie whilst trying to figure out how did we get to lavish Randlords at Braamfontein, this past Tuesday- launch of Africa Fashion International being Jozi Fashion Week. This times its autumn and winter 2011. Trying to find a parking, a good looking lady ushers us in from the lot, my friend in the car *amazed* “is this a joke such beautiful ladies at parking lot?” AYISECACE! We then get into the venue; one hour late is not ayoba at all. Most guests were standing in the foyer, don’t ask me why… lucky for us the TV screens all over Randlords as if we care. The venue set up right at the door step, so you should know. We struggled to get to the bar and the waiter shouted “cash bar only” we thought since it’s the Motsepe’s hosting we might get free booze… try next door. Mrs Precious Motsepe World On Press loves your pretty dress… reminds us of African Cinderella. I am not sure about your makeup, Ego Mash when you decide to do a comeback start with Mrs Motsepe. The event was attended by sponsors, government representatives, celebs, fashion dogs and cats including the likes of Sonia Booth, Jen Sue, Nothende.
Food came in platforms-saw Koyo Bala with black and white skinny Clown pants looking like a sick wet cat. Bhuti Buyelekhaya if Jozi’s nightlife is hard. Still on black and white. Mrs Motsepe next time hire black DJ will do us proud… as the whitey DJ wet and dancing next to the beat. I am still traumatised by DJ Dino Moran the “white boy “loves white music yet he is world renowned DJ. We waited for any Durban’s song until now. DJ Zinhle was moving up and down like a headless chicken trying to grab attention. Sisi we love you but next time do disaster management when the DJ starts horse riding at night *death by animal welfare*. I tried dancing to the tune.
I spotted the group of bright colourful boys with weirdest hairstyle- Smartiz the fashion rats. It felt like spring day and Caribbean party. Don’t say I didn’t warn you Noni Gasa and Felipe Mazibuko scares me to death. I might die soon if I see them together again. Jen and Jerry there’s something about your smiles are they real or is it me? Zizo Beda was that a mini wedding dress? I hope it’s not a sign from God… maybe I am the prophet. If you get married can I be at your lobola negotiations pleazzzzzzzzzzeee, I love such occasions? AYISECACE! I swear on my late friends grave who died of overdose, next time when I see Kwela Tebza together I will cut the mothers cord just to free them from being sticky and stiffly * hides* Due to cash bar the night was short. On my way out saw queen or King David Tlale trying to analyse my outfit, you could have ask me Uncle Dave, as my natural stylist instinct comes for free though I dress like a potato bag sometimes. Oh Gert was that your Fiancée or you were just trying to grab my attention? When is the weeding date so I could come and dance Indlamu or Umteyo. Gay community loves to feel fashion house, events organizers next time invite Apple Seed of Bongo Muffin as MC… then you will thank me. AYISECACE!
