46664Fashion
is heading into Summer 2012/13 fearlessly - and full of enough fun and
flamboyance to get the good times rolling well before the festive season swings
around again. The dynamic third range from the social impact brand, which
raises sustainable income for the 46664 organisation, lives up to its billing
as a global player with highly covetable menswear and womenswear.
Head
menswear designer, Chris Vogelpoel, describes Summer 2012/13 as a continuation
of 46664Fashion’s “celebration of bright colours and bold contrasts”. Sometimes
with its tongue firmly in its cheek, 46664Fashion’s Menswear Summer 2012/13 is
spot on the current global trends - but never without the unique design twists
that reflect the brand’s intense passion for Africa.
Always
delivering the unexpected and not shy of being on the right side of flamboyant,
Summer 2012/13 takes the at times worn-out “preppy” theme for a quirky outing –
with the brand’s sought-after golfers now available in new standout colours, a
perfect match for washed shorts. Denim shirts are a centrepiece of the range,
featuring the distinctive shweshwe detailing that has found 46664Fashion
devotees around the country and there are also plenty of blazers, chinos and
jeans.
Head womenswear designer, Barbara Tosalli
has upped the ante on the prints and colours that are fast becoming her
signature across the range. “If a print doesn’t come out and bite you from
afar, I don’t want it in the range,” Tosalli says of her super-sexy and
infinitely wearable Summer 2012/13 range.
From
wild, inventive animal prints to colours that make a statement and, always, a
host of incredible details, 46664Fashion Womenswear 2012/13 is the first-choice
for women who are looking for dynamic fashionwear that they can personalise at
the drop of a stunning blouse.
Since
launching at retail in August 2011, 46664Fashion has effortlessly seduced a
growing number of brand devotees who are passionate about supporting this
fund-raising mechanism for 46664 – founded by Mr Nelson Mandela as a way of
taking forward his humanitarian legacy in 2002.
The
brand’s wearers are deeply proud to be associated with 46664 – and with
46664Fashion’s launch internationally, the number of 46664Fashion followers is
set to rapidly expand.
For
the brand’s designers, this is only a further spur to keep creating bold,
fearless ranges of great quality. “46664 continues to inspire me to constantly
perform better and the brand has consumed me,” explains Vogelpoel. “The
overwhelming response to the brand in the US and Europe has undoubtedly proved
that the designs, quality and the fit are on track and that the story and ethos
of the brand is on the move.”
