SEDITSI - Spring/Summer 21
Seditsi is a South African RTW brand. This first collection features a selection of pieces that are wearable across a broad age group. From a dress with a beaded bust that perfectly suits a special occasion to more casual pieces for a day to day use.
From the designer: “the line that made its debut at this past AFI Fashion Week boasts billowy, cocoon shapes, sumptuous floral prints and experimental structures as part of the brand’s aesthetic language. Inspired by my late mother’s spiritual beliefs and sense of style, the brand’s “Martha 31” collection consisted of elegantly tailored pieces that were largely rendered from cotton and chiffon.
I also place a great deal of emphasis on the spiritual nature of my work and my ranges are created for the woman who understands her spiritual side. My collection of “lady-like” creations looked unexpectedly at home against the backdrop of a traditional, African-style village , our models embodying the poise and presence of the maternal figure by whom the collection was influenced. One might think the subdued, feminine nature of my collection would look out of place in such a setting but rather, the juxtaposition presented an unexpectedly poetic merging of tradition and modernity.”
