IQHAYIYA LOMANYANO” IS A CAPSULE COLLECTION THAT DRAWS FROM THE DEEPLY NOSTALGIC JOY OF CHILDHOOD IN TOWNSHIP AND VILLAGE STREETS. IT REFLECTS A TIME WHEN DAYS WERE SHAPED BY THE EXCITEMENT OF PLAYING SPORT, WHERE DREAMS OF BECOMING PROFESSIONAL SPORTS STARS FELT CLOSE AND POSSIBLE.
THE COLLECTION CAPTURES THE RITUALS AND EMOTIONS OF THOSE MOMENTS. RUSHING HOME FROM SCHOOL WITH ANTICIPATION, CHANGING OUT OF SCHOOL CLOTHES, WASHING SOCKS QUICK, AND RUNNING BACK OUTSIDE BEFORE THE STREET LIGHTS CAME ON. IT RECALLS THE RESOURCEFULNESS OF PLAY, WHERE BALLS WERE MADE FROM BREAD PLASTICS, TIN CANS, BRICKS AND WHATEVER ELSE COULD BE FOUND, TRANSFORMED BY IMAGINATION INTO SOMETHING MEANINGFUL.
THROUGH A CAREFULLY CURATED SELECTION OF GARMENTS, “IQHAYIYA LOMANYANO” TRANSLATES THESE MEMORIES INTO A CONTEMPORARY FORM, HOLDING ONTO THE SENSE OF FREEDOM, UNITY AND POSSIBILITY THAT DEFINED THOSE EXPERIENCES. IT IS BOTH A REFLECTION AND A TRIBUTE, HONOURING A SHARED CHILDHOOD WHERE COMMUNITY, CREATIVITY AND DREAMS WERE INTERWOVEN INTO EVERY MOMENT OF PLAY.
