Mozambique Fashion Week - Young Designers Round Up

- December 20, 2012

First year of my Fashion Design Course is finished. Exactly a year ago, I was over the moon with the happiness of getting to live my dream. Which brings me to this post's theme, at this point I am back in Mozambique for holidays and I have had the amazing opportunity to sit right next to the judges panel, composed by @Derek Geddes, @Michelle Andrews and @Bryan Ramkilawan, along with Candice Moodie and Randall Abrahams.

Let's begin the roundup of the young designers. I personally believe that this year showed us that our designers are even more aware of what's trending around the world, regarding hemlines, style lines, fit, colours and creativity. Some of those designers really impressed me, and the judges, by the quality, the design and the concept behind every garment.

And the winner of the night was Telma Orlando. I had the honor of naming and handing her award. Take a look at her amazing pieces.

Telma Orlando

These are my favorite ones. I believe Telma was the best because she found a way to merge the "capulana" fabric and prints, with the most modern cuts, style lines, nice short dresses, asymmetrical hems, open backs, and peplums. I think she got it right in every piece.

Congratulations Telma! I really wish you can accomplish all your dreams, and I know this was one of them! I am glad I was part of it.

And you, what did you think?
