Last night at the Marie Claire Prix de la mode awards, Stiaan Louw, no stranger to our blog, got the citation nod for Best Fashion Designer. Congrats!
But the big news is that Stiaan will be showing his garments abroad in London, which quite honestly is about time. The 19th of September sees the international unveiling of a capsule collection which derives from his JFW showing with hints of his new direction at Vauxhall Fashion Scout.
As for winners of the MC awards in their respective catagories we wish to congratulate the following:
Best Retailer – Woolworths
Best Business Savvy Fashion Label – TWO
Best Big Emporium Supporting Local Production – The Space
Best Small Emporium Supporting Local Production – MeMeMe

UPDATE: iFashion gives us a little more information on Stiaan and two other locals showing in London and the stages being taken to get to New York.
I love Stiaan Louw! And you're the best fashion blogger, Marco!
