Fashion Design Intern: Tshepiso Kelly Dinake

3rd year Fashion Design student at North West School of Design, Tshepiso Kelly Dinake, interned with me during her mid-year vacation.

Tshepiso was such a breath of fresh air and a truly hard worker. I absolutely loved having her here.

"I learned a lot from Jose...not only making garments, but also dealing with people everyday. Working with Jose definitely confirmed that fashion is still my dream and has motivated me to work hard so that I can have my own business one day. I also learned that having a business is very hard work and that you need to make a lot of sacrifices if you want to achieve anything in life." - Tshepiso Kelly Dinake

Matric Dance: Neck Wear

Often the focus is only on the young ladies when it comes to the matric dance. The young men also have a lot to think about when it comes to their attire- the neck wear for examples. Not only the regular neck ties are an option; bow ties, cravats and bolo-ties could be options too. Find the one that suits your personality best!

Trend: Maxi Skirt

I love this trend because you can dress it up to suit your personality and it suits all body shapes. It also works well for all seasons!
