Was there a particular moment where you knew you wanted to get into fashion?

I never thought I would. I absolutely loved clothes but never thought I would end up in a creative field as I started my career in banking. When I started in the fashion industry, I worked in digital marketing, and it was there when I realised I wanted to get into the more creative side of fashion.

What would you say constitutes a normal day for you?

My job description ranges from brand collaborations to campaigns, doing talks and panels, hosting workshops, doing interviews… and I also run my brand of afro hair extensions, Big Hair No Care. I don’t have a normal day per se, but you can often find me in my kitchen working on my laptop with my assistant Sipho or in meetings. My husband is at home with my son, which means we also get to hang together, so I usually have lunch with them. In the evening, there often are fun press events and interesting panels, but I must admit I don’t attend them as much as I used to—I’m more bedbug than socialite.
