Please have a look at our stockists lists, its been updated and we are so excited that Genevieve MCC can be found at these lovely venues in Cape Town and Joburg to be enjoyed by all.

africhic.com, the brand new fashion e-boutique for African designers, has made its catwalk debut with an exclusive ‘discover African design’ press launch.

Held on 28th of January 09, the new gallery at Ellerman House in Cape town played host to a select crowd of magazine editors and fashion mavens. The clothes and accessories designers themselves also came to fly to flag for this exciting e-tail venture that offers a global platform for homegrown labels such as Lalesso, Michelle Ludek, Nazir, Suzaan Heyns, Superella, Thula Sindi, Missibaba, urban africa, Ida Elsje and Philippa Green.

The fashionable crowd looked stunning dressed in chic evening wear including Michelle Cowley in a black&white Marion&Lindie dress, her sister Lisa in a red evening gown from NY brand 12 street. Presenter Isabella de Villiers rocked a vintage outfit rounded with very dark lips for a great contrast. Actress Amanda Dilima chose a fabulous Suzaan Heyns dress with signature shoulder detail in leather and very feminine hip pocket detail. The woman behind the venture, Sylvia Gruber, greeted guests in a figure-hugging full length dress from Nazir (available at africhic.com) demonstrating that high style is now just one click away.

After mingling at the reception area with a glass or two of Cap Classique from Genevieve enjoying the beautiful weather and views of Bantry Bay, the guests were lead into the Gallery where africhic.com fashion was displayed all amongst beautiful contemporary art – creating an ambience to perfectly convey the ‘discover African design’ message. After a presentation about the brand, the guests were all then invited to help themselves to a shopping voucher and to start shopping.
