Men’s Health Magazine South Africa in association with Mont Blanc hosted their 12th annual Menswear Collection event at the Grand African Café & Beach in Cape Town on Thursday 19 September 2019. Launched in 2007, the Menswear Collection has cemented its presence as one of the must-attend events on the fashion calendar with celebrities, stylists, local fashion icons and influencers all gathering under one roof to celebrate South Africa’s leading fashion brands on the runway.

“It’s my aim to redefine style for men in South Africa. Local and international fashion brands will showcase their new wares for Spring and Summer. Laid back casual looks, sportswear and vibrant beachwear are set to become the new casual go-tos for summer, while the tailoring revival continues to thrive with slim fitting suits, bespoke tailoring and travel inspired looks” says, Men’s Health Fashion Editor Azeez Jacobs.

Brands that were showcased and featured at the event include: Duca Del Cosma X Craig Jacobs, Polo, Superdry, Soviet, Adidas, Modus, Palse Homme, Montblanc, and Sorbet Man as the official grooming partner.

The show featured Men’s Health cover models as well as local celebs like Kat Sinivasan, E Entertainment presenter; Fez Mkhize, Mr World Africa and Men’s Health cover guy, and Eden Classens, Actor. Special performance from NaakMuziq, singer and Soviet brand Ambassador.

The evening ended off with a VIP after party hosted by Montblanc featuring international DJ Karrouhat and graffiti artist and illustrator Shaun Oakley. Everyone attending left with a goodie bag valued at R2500. The goodie bag included colognes and perfumes from Mont Blanc, beauty care vouchers from top hotels in Cape Town, as well as little fashion items from the brands that showcased on the runway.

It was such a memorable evening bringing together relevant personalities in the fashion and entertainment industry for a night of fun and networking!
