Spotted: Opening Of The SAFW Pop Up Shops
October 2, 2011 by Brown Shuga
Last week SA Fashion Week opened Pop Up Shops in Sandton City Fountain Count where local designers sold their Summer Collection garments directly to the public.
The pop up shops were open from Friday to Sunday and some of the designers who had shops included Ephymol, Vesselina Pentcheva, Black Coffee, Two, Christopher Strong, Rubicon, Gugulam, Naked Ape, Colleen Eitzen, Rachel de Mardt and Amanda Laird Cherry .
Here are a few celebs spotted at the opening:
I almost commented about how short Jen Su’s dress is but I figured I wouldn’t have said that if JLO had been rocking that and JLO’s probably older than Jen Su.
Actress and PR lady Thandi Matlaila showing off legs.
Bongi Alexander was there… kinda like she’s keeping a low profile these days… or I don’t go out often enough.
Fashionistas Paledi Segapo, Nthato Mashishi with singer, Donald Moatshe.
Miss South Africa, Bokang with Donald. He seems to be everywhere these days… I hear his album is dropping soon and he’s got a single out.
Bongi and Jen Sue with Gert Johan Coetzee in his usual waist coat & pink hehe.
Designer, Ephraim Molingoana striking an interesting pose.
Hope you guys went out to support.

Brown Suga maybe you should have commented, if u gonna wear such a short dress you WILL need super toned legs to pull it off… and the shoes, too matchy matchy!! and that Thandi dress, words fail me!!!

Damn I hate high-flying troussers.

I actually counted how many photos were taken. Keng didn’t people wanna pose for JC? Coz those couldn’t have been the only people at the function.
Thandie’s dress ne?! Lol
The gentlemen look good! Better than the ladies
Brown Shuga on Sun, 2nd Oct 2011 9:43 pm
niyathand’ uk’complaina shem…
soul sista on Sun, 2nd Oct 2011 10:26 pm
Bongi must keep a low profile or disappear completely… I don’t like people who insult others when they are drunk. Oh, & what happened to SA’s Next Top Model or something like that?
Ephraim is on point.
Lol @Mopedi & @Nthoentle…
Miranda on Sun, 2nd Oct 2011 11:01 pm
Dieta tsa JenSu di a zamanyana,nje nkabe a di apere ka roko engwee or maybe they should have had one 1 colour.Right now She looks too matchy matchy. As for the rest of the people,hai…ke fella le maatla,they should have went to the event barefoot #Puts on a bullet-proof vest# eish,their dark-knees and shape of legs…yuuu Nkosiyam I hope it is the camera making them look that way….
Question: Doesn’t Miss SA get everything sponsored,shoes included…her pic disagrees # put on a bullet-proof jersey.#
Jahara on Mon, 3rd Oct 2011 4:14 am
@Miranda take that heavy thing off ur chest. @Lustagp & team will sort u out with a nebulizer & a bench.
Back to the topic:
Thanx BS.
Bokang’s capri pants…is she sponsored by Jet? I bought mine at Jet. Hahahaa..
That lady with dark armpits & dark knees bathong! Somebody tell her to stop usin harsh deodorants & aim for those that tone the under-arms.
As for the knees,i guess she is always kneelin on harsh surfaces doin uhm…*dirty thoughts*…household chores.
JenSu’s dress,those straps look like sewed in skruspan (suspenders). Not cool!
That hairstyle ya Gert…#dead#
Who name their kid vaseline? U said one of the designers is VESSELINA or something along that rhyme ya vaseline. Tjo!

FunLover on Mon, 3rd Oct 2011 11:23 am
Jen su – haai sisi, you are very fashionably challenged shem, sad for a hollywood groupie – dunno uba where you get your inspiration from. Nice dress, nice shoes, terrible together – too matchy-matchy and “limited”…
uJGC ngathi une outfit eyi 1 nge? Cudos to all the other guys for looking Fantabulous 4th pic and last pit = effortless style…the gals – askies, no comment.
Nerlee on Mon, 3rd Oct 2011 11:41 am
Bokang looks nice and Donald looks so clean, he used to over dress shame eUJ-he was just too much then, ubhetele ngoku
Zida on Mon, 3rd Oct 2011 11:45 am
Ephraime is always looking sharp. Love him. And his clothes are always on point too. I would like more men dressing in his clothes.
BGT on Mon, 3rd Oct 2011 1:34 pm
Tjo! If as Miss South Africa the only thing people can compliment you on is your hands then ku rough mos!
I actually think she’s an attractive girl. With that said, I’ve seen more stunning crown-worthy girls in Marabastad.
mysista on Mon, 3rd Oct 2011 1:43 pm
Kwaaaaaaaaa BGT uthi there’s talent in Marabastad Lol must make my way there!!!
I like weaves neh! kodwa if udarkie is rocking a waist length one,it starts looking a bit too Oxford road!
Hayi nina have ya’ll seen the new Dark & Lovely anti- breakage what-what tv ad, I think the girl has on a weave(thought I saw weave tracks when the model flicked her hair)
kanti bayaphi odarkie abane nwele ezinde like Karabo (Connie) in her heydays?
