Local fashion designer unveils exhibition

Local fashion designer David Tlale is unveiling an exhibition in Johannesburg on Thursday.

The award-winning designer has dressed a number of top South African celebrities and is known for his striking outfits.

He is collaborating with artist Charles Storr on the show Agony and Ecstacy, which explores the relationship between high fashion and art.

Tlale told Eyewitness News he wants to show he is more than just a fashion fundi.

“We are trying to bring design and fashion more than anything else couture or just a David Tlale signature into people’s home because at times people say David’s signature is very dramatic I cannot wear it, how about hanging it on your wall.”

To become a great fashion designer, you've got to have great role models.  And David Tlale is a good one to follow.  I just love his collection.
