Quiteria Atelier Launches New Collection
Renowned fashion designer Quiteria Lebohang Kekana partners with African starts on his new range titled “New Order”.
Quiteria dropped the all-black collection which features Actor Sandile Mahlangu; Skeem Saam actress Lerato Marabe; SAMA nominee Makhadzi Muimbi; Nigerian singer Oluwa Kuwait; actress and voice-over artist Mapaseka Koetle-Nyokong; news anchor Eva Modika, SAFTA nominee Mapula Mafole; and fashionista Sephiri Rasemene as brand ambassadors.
“Everyone is regal and ready to take on the journey ahead. This look cements the power that lies in every African child,” Quiteria quoted in an article.
After having a fallout with his business partner, George Malelu whom he formed the brand Quiteria & George with, Quiteria went solo in early 2019. They were a strong duo dressing high-ranked celebrities across the world including Beyoncé, who wore their dress during a performance at the Global Citizen Festival in December 2018.
Quiteria has been doing well since the split even being invited to showcase at Flying Solo New York Fashion Week – a membership-based retail service that collaborates with brands to create a thriving retail industry for innovative designers. He was also awarded the “Collection of the week” award at the 2019 Durban Fashion Fair Recognition awards hosted at the ICC.
