The Camps Bay strip was star studded in style on Friday 10 February at the Heat magazine powered Red Carpet Fashion Show 2012.

Celebrity guests Elana Afrika and Katlego Maboe took to the stage, introducing SA’s leading fashion giants KLuK, Port, Stefania Morland, Jagadi and a fresh new designer on the scene, Joanna Hedley, with BeachCult.

The Heat glam fashion event celebrated the empowerment of women through Dermalogica’s joinFITE initiative. Red Carpet Concepts handed over a cheque of R16 000.00 to the foundation. “All the hard work pays off in the end when you’re able to look back at what you’ve achieved and feel proud. We couldn’t have chosen a better initiative to back” says Red Carpet Concepts MD and Red Carpet Fashion Show event organizer Jade Allen.

Aphrodite Diamond’s also gave away a show stopping R65 000.00 pair of raw diamond chandelier earrings to Mpume Maphumulo.

The show was further topped by a debut showcasing of both online fashion super store Zando.co.za – the official shoe supplier of the Red Carpet Fashion Show 2012, and Carol Boyes’ new line of sunglasses, jewellery and hand bags.

The full house of 500 guests enjoyed incredible catering by master chef Lauden Kirk of Simply Italian, and seemingly endless complimentary drinks by Pongracz, Bernini, Peroni, Gordon’s Gin, Thin Lizzy and Vitamin Water cocktails.
