My dear readers, I am so thrilled to announce that my clothing line JUST JEAN is now out! This is a vision I have carried since I was a child, making dolls and designing their clothes. I debut my clothing line with a sneak preview of whats to come.
VINTAGE LACE AND AFRICAN PRINT
I love retro fashion and my vision is to blend vintage with African print, the African print being more subtle. My fashion sense was inspired from my childhood. I grew up in a small farming town of Karoi in Zimbabwe where I spent my time studying nature and the beauty of it. I am an old fashion kinda girl. I hate big cities and fast life. Take me to a country cottage with a big fireplace and chickens and goats outside, I would be the happiest woman on the planet. I chose to do my photo shoot in a place of tranquility I have grown to love and found healing and restoration. I love nature, animals and the outdoors, during my ordeal with sex offender Walter Masocha I spend a lot of time in this place jogging, having a picnic or just meditating. My clothes are not just about fashion, but inspiration. I want my vintage clothing to portray that. Here is a sneak peak of my latest design, I mixed vintage lace with African print to make up this unique contemporary dress that can be worn on a day out, at work or even on a date to make subtle statement! I love this dress because it looks stylish and chick without giving out the trying too hard look! Effortlessly pretty. By the way my little 6 year old prince took these pictures, isn't he just talented!
This happens to be my father's favorite photo. He blessed it and said my designs will go far.
My Fashion Inspiration, my Mother
My mother was always a drop dead gorgeous. Her fashion sense always inspired me from when I was a child. I love this photo of her holding me and my older brother in 1982 the year I was born. We lived in Mutare then. I would rock this vintage looking dress she was wearing today. Her Afro complemented her look so well, yes I am definitely my mother's child.
80'S LOOK, BRIGHT AND CATCHY
I just love the 80's Fashion! The bright colors and big hairdos. I have a cheeky wild sense of fashion too. I love making big statements, taking risks, looking different and being bold! Thats the other side of me that's not so traditional and country, lol. My clothing line will be like two sides of the coin, the country Jean and the bold Jean. Here is a sneak peak of my 80's inspired design. I was inspired to design this jumpsuit from my love of bold colors, of which orange happens to be my favorite color. Its all about color and boldness and daring to be different! I'm talking attitude, sexy, sassy and confidence. It takes a woman who knows who she is to unleash the confident goddess in her. You can wear this on a night out, a special event or just a hot summers day out!
