Lukhanyo Mdingi: Wholly and Holistically

Floated by the concepts of muted elegance, intelligent design, and consciousness, we met Lukhanyo Mdingi, whose label, founded in 2015, has created a new wave in South African fashion. Distinguished by vibrant and classic, timeless forms, Mdingi’s garments pursue functionality and wearability. He believes in the significance of developing honest, steady, and contemporary products. At the same time, an innovative approach and high-quality textures, including linen, silk, and angora mohair, are blended with traditional African colours and prints, creating modern, cross-cultural designs. The essence of ease and serenity, yet innovative garments, is captured in the following creative journey.
