Faheema Kader – the first ever designer from South Africa at DFW - showcased her Fall/Winter line, titled 'Gold Rush', inspired by the country’s mineral wealth. The collection was lavish in its use of sequins, as embellishments found their way onto necklines, hemlines and along sleeves. Wide pants in black lace were worn over gold leggings, paired with corsets and elbow length gloves.
Highlights of the show included a long silk olive coat paired with a black skirt featuring gold polka dot appliqués and a tailored suit with red piping and matching back panel, offering a sneak peek into her upcoming men’s fashion collection.

Other innovations included abayas with almond-shaped orange and grey appliqués and an abaya with a diagonal leopard print.
