Sofiatown Collection: Jacket Linings, Rails & a Ladder!

Many thanks to the noted South African photographer Simon Diener from SDR Photo (@SDRphoto) in Cape Town who found the time to snap these great shots hot on the heels from London Fashion Week...

The jacket, collar and pocket linings of silk inspired by Nelson Mandela's famous batik-style shirts accentuate and contrast with the colourful jacket fabrics to become an outstanding feature in their own right and also allow some jackets to be practically reversible; here's a selection. Coupled with the nappa leather external finishes, the jackets become an unmistakable signature statement. The champagne and bronze-sleeved jacket was the first to be sold in the remodelled store.
