Khothatso Tsotetsi

The designer is Verneeriging born and did fashion design technology at Tshwane University of Technology (TUT).
His career began when he used his own savings to buy himself a sewing machine in Grade 8 and immediately started with sewing curtains & scatter cushions and making clothing alterations without charging for it.

Throughout his studies at TUT he interned at Mornachy Couture and Clive Rundle in his final year.

 Achievements:

His latest showcase was at the 2013 Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Johannesburg in March with collections that define the modern daring woman:

It's no wonder why his garments have graced publications like Marie Claire and The Sowetan among others.
He has created a good name for himself and he is sure to redefine modern fashion. What I like about him is his consistent growth and unique approach to fashion.
