Introduction
The objective of this presentation is to stimulate critical
debate and interaction with a captive audience. It is a birds eye view of South Africa's fashion industry, tracking some important historical contexts and sharing
some insights into the current issues it faces. My aim is to sketch out the
links between various areas and nodes along the fashion value chain, and survey
the status of these seams: some requiring strengthening, some needing
realignment, and others holding together well enough to allow for free movement
and growth.
The article is the written version of the presentation given
at the 5th Annual Arts & Culture Fashion Seminar Sanlam SA Fashion Week,
March 2008.
