To Boldly Show...

Clive Rundle Summer Collection 2010/2011

Zimbabwean-born, Johannesburg-raised fashion designer Clive Rundle is renowned for being one of South Africa’s most prolific and gifted

fashion exports. A bold statement about a bold designer, but one we can easily back up by pointing to a mere sprinkling of gems

studding his decorated career.

In early 2010, Clive was one of only ten African designers shown at the Arise L’Afrique-à-Porter Fall 2010/2011 presentation in Paris, with his collection Marie Antoinette Returns to Paris after Attending A Lesbian Wedding in Africa. His ranges have graced titles like Dazed & Confused, Visi, Elle and Dossier, he was profiled in one small seed’s glossy pages in 2008 (issue 11) and he was commissioned to design the headpiece of our cover girl in June 2010 (issue 19) by Joburg photographer Ross Garrett. Throughout South Africa and abroad, the name Clive Rundle has become a massive

drawcard to South African Fashion Weeks over the years with his shows packing out each time.

The collection shown here is Clive Rundle’s Summer Collection 2010/2011, presented as the kickoff to SA Fashion Week, Johannesburg, 2010 at his dazzling new store in The Firs in Rosebank. The show was part of a graffiti installation by young local artist Mark Erasmus. Once again devoted photographer Ross Garrett was on call to support Clive in his lifelong mission to boldly show what no man has shown before. cl
