Models walk the ramp in an empty auditorium as AFI Fashion Week moved its last day of runway shows online in response to the Coronavirus pandemic. South Africa Fashion Week has also announced that it will take its Spring/Summer 2020 runway shows online.
Africa Fashion International ( AFI ) Fashion Week to continue without guests due to coronavirus outbreak
Following hot on the heels of Africa Fashion International (AFI), South African Fashion Week South Africa Fashion Week ( SAFW ) has announced that it’ll be taking its Spring/Summer 2020 runway shows online in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.
On March 14, AFI cancelled the third and final day of live presentations at Fashion Week Cape Town. Ticket holders were refunded and the scheduled runway shows went ahead without an audience. Instead they were streamed via social media.
That’s partially because Booyzen was concerned that fashion weeks were becoming less about the designers’ collections and more about who was in attendance at the shows.
“Rather than spending lots of money and having big venues, we were looking at new ways of showing collections.”
She’d also been keeping a close eye on developments around the Covid-19 pandemic.
“Since January we’ve been developing a plan B. With the backing of our sponsors, Sandton City, Cruz and Carlton Hair, we are going to shoot the collections in isolation because the designers have already started designing their sample collections.”
Along with having no audiences, Booyzen confirmed that South Africa Fashion Week’s Spring/Summer 2020 runway shows would involve less models, make-up artists and production people than past years in light of the current pandemic. Health specialists will also be consulted to ensure that a safe working environment is created.
The wasteful nature of fashion weeks has been called into question around the globe by environmental groups such as Extinction Rebellion. Beyond being “Covid-19 respectful”, a recent South Africa Fashion Week statement boasts that the upcoming runway shows will be “climate-friendly”.
“It is important for designers to reinvent themselves and think about how they do not have to spend so much money, how to use more natural fabrics and how to be sustainable,” said Booyzen.
Presenting this season’s collections digitally has also made some designers rethink the relevance of Fashion Week entirely.
Neo Serati Mofammere, the young mastermind behind Joburg-based label Nao Serati, explained that while past generations of designers relied heavily on such events to promote their brands, newcomers to the industry have found “a whole lot of different ways” to do so.
“Right now Instagram is the strongest way to market [yourself] and some people are using influencers. It doesn’t work for everybody but some designers would rather have an influencer wear their garments and some use good old word of mouth.”
South Africa Fashion Week is set to take place in late April.

Let’s be honest. We all dress up for other people. At least to some extent.
It may be to attract the opposite sex as we seek their admiration. Admiration, not approval.
It may be to impress members of the same sex as we seek their respect. Anyone who’s ever had to dress up for an important function with a lot of big wigs can easily attest to this. Today, however, I want to address the most important person you will ever dress up for.
YOU.
Elevating your standards to new heights and dressing up for yourself can have some serious positive impacts on your psychology. Benefits which include but are not limited to;
A major boost in your self-confidence which radiates like warm sunshine to those around you.
Improved mental health based on the good feelings you end up having about yourself from within.
A sudden increased desire to go out and conquer, which is essentially what men are all about in the first place.
When all’s said and done, anything you wear to a special occasion should pump you up as it does with the gentleman in the video below.
https://youtu.be/znsyf0Ot0mU
If it doesn’t, then it’s a waste of money. And as my grandfather would always say, “It’s better to invest Kshs. 50,000 than to lose Kshs. 5,000.”
So, gentlemen, it’s time to stop taking cheap shortcuts and make the investment in yourself that you’re worthy of.
You deserve it.
