THE who’s who of Johannesburg’s A-listers and celebrities graced the long awaited, first-ever Arise Africa Fashion Week awards on Saturday night at the Sandton Convention Centre, the guests including American R&B star R Kelly. The awards, the finale of fashion showcases from all over Africa, which have been running since June12, were attended by high- profile guests such as mining mogul Patrice Motsepe and his wife Precious Moloi-Motsepe, who is chairwoman of African Fashion International, which hosted the event. Also there were businesswoman and magazine editor Khanyi Dhlomo, former first lady of France Cecilia Attias, and supermodel Alek Wek, who co-hosted the event with Top Billing’s Michael Mol. More than 1 000 people attended the awards. Walking away with the top prize, the designer of the year award, were South African David Tlale and Nigerian Tiffany Amber, who will both win a place on the catwalks at the New York Fashion Week in September . “We may not have won the football tonight, but we made headway in our mission to take African fashion to the world,” said Moloi- Motsepe . R Kelly was undoubtedly the highlight of the night and was presented with the Friend of Africa award after his performance of hit songs such as Ignition, Wind for M e, Down Low and Happy P eople. The singer, who arrived in South Africa on Thursday, had been forced to apologise earlier for ‘ ‘attempting to censor journalists” by making them sign a contract that could have led to their being sued if they published anything not approved by his managers. His managers said they had wanted to prevent the star from being ‘‘misquoted”. Other winners were Heni, m ost p romising d esigner; Klûk CGDT, Red Carpet F ashion award; and Suzaan Heyns and AngloGold Ashanti, for their c reative fashion tiffany jewellery range .
