There has been a bit of a debate on facebook over the Fashion Gone Wild for the Vogue Australia December 2011 issue. People are frustrated by the spread saying that it shows the wrong kind of Africa. I said the spread looks good, but the theme is redundant. On one of the facebook rants, I wrote that if we don’t show people the different sides of Africa, then this what they are going to keep showing.
A few days later I saw this spread ‘Island Style‘ for Cosmopolitan South Africa and I thought ‘WOW! This is the side of Africa the world needs to see!’. The spread is a breath of all sorts. A breath of fresh air, colour, and style.
