The third biannual Soweto Fashion Week (SFW) is set to take place from 28 – 31 May 2014 at the Soweto Theatre in Soweto, Johannesburg. Darling Hair will be the headlining sponsor of the event.
SFW will kick off with a launch party on 28 May 2014, followed by 3 days of runway shows showcasing Winter and Autumn collections from 15 designers made up of both emerging and established designers. The theme this year is “Africa Unite”. Soweto being a pivotal focus point in the country’s heritage, and a place that attracts Africans from all over the continent, SFW this year will include designers from Nigeria, Botswana and Zimbabwe.

“I’m particularly excited about the upcoming SFW shows. 3 years down the line there has been a lot of growth from both a brand and designer perspective. Having been invited to showcase in Switzerland and Las Vegas last year, I know that there is only bigger and better things to come”
shares Stephen Manzini, founder and director of Soweto Fashion Week
