WATCH | SA Fashion Week: The dress code said 'modest and mindful' — how did fashionistas interpret the theme?

The Autumn/Winter 2025 SA Fashion Week Collections took place at its new home at Melrose Arch from September 24 to 28.

Attendees were encouraged to showcase any designs by SA Fashion Week's designers. A-listers' Craig Jacobs spoke to the director of SA Fashion Week Lucilla Booyzen about introducing a dress code. 

“We have always had a dress code but this season what we've done is modest and simplicity because we need the designer collections to speak. It's about the creative passion of designers in South Africa,” said Booyzen.
