Fashion in the Spotlight
Denim, an iconic wardrobe staple, is being taken up a notch at Hyde Park Corner with the opening of the new Tshepo Jeans flagship store. This premier lifestyle denim brand offers a range of bespoke and ready-to-wear denim clothing, cotton products and accessory items, which range from jeans to hats and aprons. Founded in 2015 by Tshepo Mohlala, the brand has established itself in the hearts and minds of ordinary South Africans and people across the world due its distinctly Afrocentric approach reflected in their logo – a three pronged crown inspired by the three women to have played a role in the upbringing of Tshepo: his mother, grandmother and trendy aunt, Takalani. Check out Tshepo Jeans custom designs and ready-to-wear collection in a space where people can come together and feel the creative spirit of Africa.
