Somizi message to upcoming desginers

Speaking on his Metro FM Breakfast show with DJ Fresh on Tuesday Somizi said that he was amazed by the talent in SA but was concerned by the rise of designers who thought they were celebs.

“I spoke about it at the Durban Fashion Fair, South African designer’s work should speak for itself versus them pushing the face before their work. They want to be famous. I don’t want to know the designer’s face. I want to know the designer’s work.”

He also stated that designers need to understand that not everyone was meant to design couture. Instead they should look to work on everyday clothing to push their brand.
