In this episode, we’re joined by Bonginkosi Favourite Mabandla, the creative force behind the womenswear brand SUCRA. Known for his use of sheer fabrics, structured silhouettes, and unapologetically feminine energy, Bonginkosi walks us through his journey of building a brand that challenges norms through softness.
We explore how SUCRA was born from a desire to make fashion that’s both emotionally charged and intentionally crafted. From early sketches to showcasing collections, he opens up about designing for the woman who moves with grace but stands her ground.
This is a conversation about fashion as resistance, creating from instinct, and shaping a brand identity that whispers and roars all at once.
