The May edition of Stephen Manzini’s Soweto Fashion Week is upon us [26 – 28 May 2016 at the Soweto Theatre in Bolani Road] and Joburg Tourism is delighted to once again be supporting this fabulous community-based event which is growing rapidly in size and stature.

“We’re looking forward to another exciting autumn/winter season showcase, in what has become a signature Joburg event, displaying our city’s importance as a fashion forward hub, with its heart in the right place,” says Laura Vercueil, PR and Communication Manager at Joburg Tourism.

Now celebrating its sixth birthday, the Soweto Fashion week is a spirited, lively affair applauding the soul and flair of South Africa’s most iconic township – recognising, developing, nurturing fashion design, beauty industry and modelling talent and giving designers both a showcase and access to local and global markets. 

In the few years since establishing this colourful, bi-annual event, as MD and Founder of the Soweto Fashion Week, Stephen Manzini, has been invited to take the fashions he shows to participate in fashion weeks in the United States and Europe.
