South Africa’s darling and now New Yok based TV presenter and reality star Bonang Matheba,34, takes front row seat at New York Fashion Week.
Designers Mark Badgley and James Mischka opened the show with lime, orange, lemon and blue as well as softer neutrals for their collection, inspired by Bette Davis in “Now, Voyager” as well as Italy.
Mischka and Tadashi Shoji showed off vibrant colours and florals for women’s spring wardrobes.
This event is one of the few since the pandemic, seeing a return to physical shows this season.
Against a screening of waves in the background, models sashayed in an array of prints.
It all officially kicked off on 7 September 2021. The first day is comprised of a handful of in-person, invite-only events including Maiden Name, Collina Strada, Christian Siriano, the Ksubi x Hidji 2nd Collaboration Launch and Harlem’s Fashion Row.

To celebate the designer making her official runway debut, guests mostly dressed in PatBo headed to Daniel Boulud’s new airy, greenery-filled eatery Le Pavillon to drool over the pieces that’ll be heating up your Instagram feed next spring.
