Soft Armour &

Loud Feelings:

The SA Fashion Week

Edit

Gemineye Magazine 

30.04.2026

There’s always a quiet kind of electricity at South African Fashion Week, but this season felt different. Less like a showcase, more like a group chat of emotions we’ve all been avoiding. The runway wasn’t about serving looks, it was a visual diary where we explored feelings. Big ones. Contradictory ones. The kind you don’t always have language for, but somehow… you can wear.

This editorial embarks on an exploration of becoming — the transition between who we were and who we are growing into. Through his lens, Botshelo captures the fluidity of change: the emotional shifts, the contradictions, the honesty required to stay true to yourself while evolving.

​

 

In this interview we discover that becoming isn’t about transforming into someone new, but about stepping more fully into who you already are.
