The Relentless - Lucilla Booyzen | Founder of South African Fashion Week
In this episode of Textural Anthologies, I’m honoured to connect with someone who has played a monumental role in shaping the fashion landscape of South Africa. Today’s guest is Lucilla Booyzen, the visionary founder of South African Fashion Week.
For the past 23 years, Lucilla has been tirelessly mentoring, educating, and promoting incredible talents from across South Africa. As we approach the upcoming South African Fashion Week (October 22-24), which will be Africa’s first-ever fully digital fashion week, we dive into what it takes to pull off a three-day streaming program featuring 27 digital runway shows.
In our conversation, we explore how Lucilla started South African Fashion Week, her unwavering commitment to developing local designer labels, and how she’s helping to shape a new South African aesthetic that’s gaining international attention. And let’s not forget—South Africa has produced finalists and winners of the LVMH Prize for the past two consecutive years!
Join us as we learn more about the incredible journey of South African fashion, both on and off the runway.
