South African fashion designer has released the second installment of his acclaimed Heritage Series —- “Mother & Child”. The collection focused on the celebratory and totemic studies of 9 cultures in his homeland, South Africa.
The Mother & Child-motifed collection is also to celebrate the brand’s website’s international relaunch.
In an Instagram post, Thebe Magugu related:
“The 9 images illustrating each dress, to be released over the next two weeks, sees subjects carrying a multitude of objects on their heads, much like my own family, who swung between South Africa and The Kingdom of Lesotho.
“Seeing the women in my family have to carry children on their back and necessities on their head always reminded me of (incredibly chic) Afro totem poles; a showcase of utter strength both physical and symbolic and I wanted to pay homage to this memory.”
See the collection below.
