PERSON OF INTEREST: IMKHIThA MANI


Hey beautiful people, I hope you are all well and surviving this tough yet beautiful journey called life. I have decided to add a new feature to the blog that will be titled, 'Person of Interest'. This feature is dedicated to individuals who are paving their own way and making a name for themselves in their respective careers.

One of the many images that she has styled

Our inaugural person interest is the talented Imkhitha Mani. The reason why we are profiling is because she is currently a radio disk jockey at In4Radio, a fashion stylist and she has great style to top it all off. She credits her love of fashion and her entry into fashion styling to her mother as she was a designer. She states that " I was always around fabric and I saw how she was a visionary in changing spaces so I gravitated towards the fashion but on a conceptualizing aspect , hence styling" when she describes how her mother introduced fashion to her.

She is a genius behind the mic
When it comes to the challenges that come with being a stylist, she states that the fashion styling industry in Port Elizabeth is very small. She then goes on to describe the style of Port Elizabeth residents, as that they are "very stylish but they are not trend setters and that the bay fashion scene is very relaxed". As a stylist Imkhitha has worked with a large number of notable Port Elizabeth - based  brands from Feelings of the Red Heart, Tsoofi. She has also added working with creative and popular disk jockey Sam Jennings on a 90's themed photo shoot for the one year anniversary of the Sam Jam sessions.

Her take on styling the white tee

The future is very bright for Imkhitha as she is currently working with variety of designers regarding collaborations for an emerging clothing line. We can also expect a t-shirt line towards the end of the year. It seems the future is very bright for this fashionista.

The countdown until the crowning of a new king of Jozi

I must say Netflix did not disappoint with the viewing that they brought to us in December. They are the gift that keeps on giving with the new season of Kings of Jozi which will be streamed from 27 January.  I am looking forward to the season for the following reasons: I want to see how they fit in Connie Ferguson as a lead character outside of her being the Masire mermaid. The death of Shona Ferguson who portrayed Simon Masire will obviously be showcased on the show, I can't wait to see how they will blend it in the storyline The rise of Mo Masire as the new king of Jozi The set of new characters that were teased in  the trailer  of the new season which includes Thapelo Mokoena as a detective hellbent on bringing down the Masire empire. Here are some of the fabulous red carpet looks from the launch of the second season held this past weekend.

Roundup: ‘Blood Legacy’

The latest release from Gambit Productions ‘Blood Legacy’ has just rightfully earned its spot on the list of the productions that have set the bar amongst this year’s releases with its stellar cast and quality production aesthetic that has had South Africa buzzing with excitement. You know those goosebumps you feel after watching a trailer for an upcoming Netflix or Showmax release, that is what I felt after I watched the trailer for Blood Legacy for the first time. The show which is set in Durban lived up to the standards that were set by the trailer. A great cast is the key ingredient The first aspect of the show that grabs your attention when you watch the first episode is the amazing casting.
