MFxZanita - Sophie Theallet SS16

Written by: Zanita Whittington

Viva Africa!

Quietly patting myself on the back right now for keeping up a posting schedule in this crazy week - but I don’t get all the credit. We’ve had the most amazing intern Rebecca who’s been keeping my sanity and of course we have Sania here too, who is loads of fun. I haven’t felt like NYFW has been as overwhelming for me as previous seasons.

The Sophie Theallet show is a great example of why this week has been so wonderful, a energetic show - with an African theme and the most beautiful and diverse range of models I’ve seen all week. Such a fun thing to spot the incredible Candice Huffine in the line-up. A factory rooftop was the location, as the sun was setting - and there was an huge posse of African drummers singing which had everyone on their feet and dancing by the show’s completion. All runway shows should end this way! It really felt like the celebration.

Hope you’ve all enjoyed my coverage of NYFW on behalf of Matches Fashion #MFxZanita
