Only eighty rounded ticket as well, quick one. 50 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: Justine emailing me straight away to ask is this talking 51 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 1: printmaking on paper or on fabric? It's both and anything else, 52 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 1: isn't it. It's printmaking on all varieties of media. 53 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 2: I think there's going to be a range of printmaking 54 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 2: going on, all types of printmaking that you can imagine. 55 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 2: But I kind of think it is geared towards paper 56 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 2: print on paper, but I don't want to, you know, 57 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 2: I'm actually certain exactly what the material would be, but 58 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 2: I have a feeling it's more oriented towards paper print here. 59 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 1: And of course the thing used to make the print 60 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 1: can be absolutely anything as well. So just see, there's 61 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: lots of room to explore there, and I love the 62 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: fact the anchor that they're giving attendees an opportunity to 63 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: try it themselves. Okay, so that is at eighty one 64 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 1: Saint George's Moll. This coming weekend. Is it Saturday and Sunday? 65 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 2: That's right. 66 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 1: Okay, so that's the Print Festival. The brand new one 67 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 1: to look out for. Also brand new is a store 68 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:33,079 Speaker 1: in Cavendish Square, but it's a very familiar and much 69 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: loved name, jewelry designer Kurston gossp Bianca's that's right. 70 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 2: Durban born jewelry designer Kirston Gas has opened a beautiful 71 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 2: new store in Cavendish Square, much like a Hyde Park 72 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 2: store in Hauteng. And the store opens to the public today. Actually, 73 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 2: so you heard it here first, and shoppers can expect 74 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 2: her usual standard of high quality, understated design with metals 75 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 2: and precious gems. And here's a clip from kirston Hi 76 00:03:59,160 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 2: Cave Talk. 77 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 4: We've just opened our brand new Cavendier Square store in 78 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 4: Cape Town this weekend. It's a space that reflects our new, 79 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 4: grown up identity and direction as a brand, contemporary, confident, 80 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 4: and increasingly focused on fine jewelry and exceptional gemstones, much 81 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 4: like our Hyde Park flagship in Johannesburg. At the heart 82 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 4: of what we do, we champion original design, exceptional craftsmanship 83 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 4: and unusual gemstones. We started the business twenty four years 84 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 4: ago in London, and some of our goldsmiths have been 85 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 4: with us since those early days, which rarely speaks to 86 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 4: the level of skill and continuity behind what we create. 87 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 4: We're constantly sourcing unusual gemstones with incredible color and character 88 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 4: because we believe the real luxury and jewelry lies in 89 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:48,840 Speaker 4: rarity and pieces that feel discovered rather than mass produced. 90 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 4: You'll find everything from our fresh take on engagement rings, 91 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 4: wedding bands and eternity rings, so to what we call 92 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 4: every day fine jewelry, pared down eighteen characters, pieces designed 93 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 4: to be lived in and worn every day, but still 94 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 4: feel quietly luxurious. We're also launching our new solid gold 95 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 4: lockets as modern heirloom pieces, alongside distinctive gemstones and the 96 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 4: usual suspects like beautiful diamond studs and classic gold hoops. 97 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,160 Speaker 2: You can visit us at. 98 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 4: Cavendish Square, find us on Instagram at Kirston three Underscores Goths, 99 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,679 Speaker 4: or online at kirston gas dot com, and we would 100 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 4: absolutely love you to come and experience our glorious news store, 101 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 4: brimming with genes, sequa. 102 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: Rooming with talent. I would say there's no question, I 103 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: mean Bianco Her pieces are absolutely gorgeous. And how wonderful 104 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: to hear that that reference to the fact that they've 105 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: been working with some of their partners for over two decades. 106 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 1: I mean that speaks to something very special going on 107 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: inside of business. 108 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 2: Yes, very exciting, and she herself is such a vibrant 109 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 2: character and I think that definitely echoes into the store 110 00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 2: and into the pieces of themselves. 111 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 1: Okay, so go and check her out at Cavendish Square. Now, 112 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 1: perhaps the next Kirsten Goss might be found within the 113 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,280 Speaker 1: walls of the space we're going to talk about next, 114 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 1: and I'm really excited to hear what you can share 115 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 1: with us. Bianca listeners who were with us in July 116 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 1: last year may recall a conversation I had with Justin Vanbrada, 117 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:19,239 Speaker 1: who shared with us his vision of opening craft schools 118 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: all over the country. He wanted to have a place 119 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 1: where learners could come to be trained in practical crafting skills, 120 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 1: to be taught how to work with different raw materials, 121 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 1: but also to be trained in business management, so that 122 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,160 Speaker 1: they could leave not just skilled in their craft, but 123 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: also able potentially to open their own business and sustain 124 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 1: themselves and others. I gather the vision has come to 125 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: life in the first campus opening for business just this 126 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: last months, Bianca. 127 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 2: That's right, that's right. It was very exciting to go 128 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 2: and visit the school. As you said, The Craft School 129 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 2: South Africa as it's called, opened its doors to the 130 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 2: first group of students this last month in February, in fact, 131 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 2: just at the end of February. And it's a nonprofit, 132 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 2: non fee paying school that teachers learners traditional making and 133 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 2: craft skills for sustainable futures. So it's founded by designer 134 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 2: Justin Vroan Brida from Cape Looms, who you said you 135 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 2: had on your show. And I visited the school it's 136 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 2: in syl Street in Woodstock last week to take a 137 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 2: closer look, and I saw some of the exciting projects 138 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 2: that the students were working on. They were making these 139 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 2: beautiful aprons, they were making boxes and learning how to 140 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 2: do all sorts of interesting skills with furniture. And they 141 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 2: still have a few openings available for keen learners who 142 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 2: might want to apply. So I thought i'd mention it 143 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 2: so that perhaps if there's someone listening today, they could 144 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 2: reach out if they're interested in being creative and upskilling themselves. 145 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 2: And here's a voice note from the founder justin Vroan 146 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 2: Brida Hibie. 147 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 5: I'm KMKP talk.

We've 175 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 1: got time to look at a little bit of international 176 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 1: design news as well. First you should we start with 177 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: the sort of design house news Bianca. 178 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 2: The Zara News, John Galliano news so Zara announced a 179 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 2: two year collaboration contract with couture designer John Galliano through 180 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 2: a series of capsule collections. So this, of course is 181 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 2: not a new concept. You and I have spoken about 182 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 2: it a few times, but it's very exciting and really 183 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 2: is a sign of the times. When a fast fashion 184 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 2: retailer taps into this very high level standard of design, 185 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 2: I suppose trying to elevate their brand but keep it 186 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 2: affordable at the same time. I think brands like a 187 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 2: Janem and Zara have a need to differentiate themselves from 188 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 2: even higher speed fashion and cheaper fashion brands like Schian 189 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 2: and Timu by incorporating a higher standard of design into 190 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 2: their clothes. So they're looking to add value and prestige, 191 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,599 Speaker 2: I think, but still make them affordable to a shopper 192 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 2: who can't afford high luxury brands the likes of Jyvon 193 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 2: she Christian Dior and Maison Margolo, which are Margella which 194 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,719 Speaker 2: is the previous houses that Galiano designed for, as well 195 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 2: as his own label, and I think this concept is 196 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:38,679 Speaker 2: aimed at those who like affordable luxury, sort of the 197 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 2: high fashion look without the high fashion quality or price tag. 198 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: It's a really interesting decision for him. I totally get 199 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: Zara saying we're going to elevate our offering while keeping 200 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: our pricing low. But it's a very interesting space for 201 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: somebody who doesn't need to play in that price bracket. Bianca, 202 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 1: let's be honest, because there are more than enough people 203 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,679 Speaker 1: lining up to spend on the high fashion, high luxury 204 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,960 Speaker 1: John Galiano. But it's a wonderful collab to give people 205 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: an opportunity to experience this. How soon do you think 206 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: we'll see that starting to trickle into Zara stores in 207 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: South Africa. 208 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 2: I'm not sure, but we'll immediately see it because he's 209 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 2: famous for very particular look, so you'll know when it's arrived. 210 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 2: He's famous for his sort of dramatic theatrical influence and 211 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 2: transforming lingerie into fashion. And also he's well known for 212 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 2: cutting slip dresses on the bias, which involves cutting fabric 213 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 2: at a forty five degree angle so that grapes moll 214 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 2: fluidly on the body. So his clothes also mix feminine 215 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 2: romance with a sort of edgy British punk aesthetic. 216 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 1: Okay, keep your eyes over for that. 217 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 2: Okay, I think we'll see it soon. I think you 218 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,319 Speaker 2: know we're not far behind these days. The world is 219 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:51,239 Speaker 2: a small place. 220 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: Okay, look out for the John Galiana designs in Zara 221 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 1: soon and let us know when you spot them. Now, 222 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: speaking of designs and design trends, the anchor, we had 223 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: the oscars not too long ago, just a week or 224 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 1: so ago. I saw a lot of feathers on the 225 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 1: red carpet all of a sudden, But what else would 226 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 1: you pick out? As some of the big trends or 227 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: stand out looks of the evening. 228 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 2: Definitely, as you said, feathers, Papa, and not just real feathers, 229 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 2: also high tech sort of interesting fabric, plasticky feathers that 230 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 2: looked like fringing. And once again something that you and 231 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,440 Speaker 2: I have discussed before, on the Red Carpet peplams. That 232 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 2: aesthetic still is sticking, you know. We saw it on 233 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 2: Nicole Kentman peplams with feathers underneath, Kate Hudson or Peplain. Yes, 234 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 2: and that Tiana Taylor who was sort of the star 235 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 2: of the Red Carpet in general from that movie One 236 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 2: Battle after Another. Also in feathers by Chanel, Demi Moore, 237 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:50,839 Speaker 2: in feathers by Gucci, and yeah, brooches for the men 238 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 2: all over and Pedro Garcia also in a feathered brooch, 239 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 2: so feathers are crossing over into the brooch territory. Also interesting, 240 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 2: all the men beautifully dressed. I remember in the early 241 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 2: days when we used to talk about them, one or 242 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 2: two would stand out, but now it's become a regular 243 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 2: thing for the men to make equal effort, and. 244 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: I'm glad for that. I think it's a Firstly, you 245 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 1: give them their fair share of the red carpet coverage. 246 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:15,320 Speaker 1: But also it's just lovely for them. 247 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 2: I love it. 248 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 1: In fact, I spent more time looking at the picture 249 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: of the pictures of what the men were wearing than 250 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: the women this time, because it is so unusual to 251 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 1: see somebody really stepping out and doing something different after 252 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: years of seeing admittedly good looking black taxes. But it's 253 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: just lovely to see people getting a bit more playful 254 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 1: with the men's cature as well as the women's. Now, 255 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 1: before we wrap up, Biance, you want to bring it 256 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: back home to Cape Town and tip us off about 257 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 1: a ceramics market this weekend. And it's one that we 258 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: need to talk about because it's had a quite significant 259 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 1: change of venue from what people are used to. So 260 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 1: thank you for flagging this tell us about the Rondebosch 261 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 1: potters Market that isn't happening in Rondebosh. 262 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 2: It's no longer in Roonderbosh.

They've grown the scale of 273 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 1: the market and the Rondebosch Park permitting restrictions etc. Just 274 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: Did not allow them to grow to the scale that 275 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 1: they needed to, So that is the reason for the 276 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 1: move to the Elfin Common and lovey that it's happening 277 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 1: over two days as well, So Saturday and Sunday nine 278 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 1: to four, go and talk to the people who made 279 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: the pieces you're admiring and find something to take home 280 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 1: that's going to have a story attached to it as 281 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 1: well as just a beautiful piece to look at.
