Perfect Touch Garments, Cape Town

BY ERIKA

As sponsoring photographers, we photographed some of the designs by Saskia Wicomb and Marshal Enyioma for Save the Tie,Save a Child  fashion show, on a very cold but bright winters day at The Garage on Mhondoro farm on Blaawklippen Road outside Stellenbosch.  

These designers with Hein Smit, were asked to use neck ties to create beautiful outfits such as the ones we have pictured here.

Hair styling and make-up for the ten models models were done at Kuif 53 in Dorp Street, Stellenbosch before setting off to a freezing cold workshop where they were posed among old cars and metal shaping equipment. And not one complaint! 

The Save The Tie, Save a Child event which is being held on  27 June and 28 June at Emo Adams’ The All Star Theatre in Brackenfell is part of Mrs Cape Town Chantal Whitthun’s fund rasing project for RoleModels Foundation and the children of Imfundo Project.
