Fashion Designer Returns To Polokwane.

After an absence of 19 months, Polokwane born designer, Nico Willoughby-Smith, will be returning to the Limpopo Province in June 2012 for a duration of 7 months, in order to quench the overwhelming thirst within the matric farewell and bridal market.

It is only evident that as the months have progressed, so the Willoughby-Smith label has sky-rocketed into what seemed to be an unreachable and demanding orbit. Nico Willoughby-Smith’s contribution towards the fashion world has clearly been missed and therefore highly sourced by many wanting to get their hands on a Willoughby-Smith creation that’s as unique as their personality.

For the last 19 months, Nico Willoughby-Smith has infiltrated the Eastern Cape market by creating a niche range consisting of classy cocktail wear and glamorous evening attire for the George Sorensen Boutique located in Port Elizabeth. His fashion label has also been tied to charitable work and his sublime designs have graced the catwalks of local beauty pageants, namely the Miss Bay FM contest.

Now back in Polokwane, Willoughby-Smith hopes to pick up from where he left off. Creating beautiful designs that are bound to turn a few heads and set new innovative trends. Considering the amount of appointments he has lined-up for his first week, we hardly believe he’s going to have difficulty settling in.

George Sorensen Releases Evening Wear.

"Beautiful fabrics wrapped with passionate splendour"... Never a truer phrase has been stated. After the success of his ladies cocktail range that was only released months ago, Nico Willoughby-Smith is very excited to be releasing his first ladies evening range at the George Sorensen Boutique situated in Walmer Park Shopping Mall.

Clients can look forward to purchasing beautiful one-piece an dtwo-piece evening gowns made within a niche size scale ranging from a size 30 to a size 36. Only the best fabrics were sourced when it came to creating this exquisite range. French silk taffeta, silk lycra, and royal dutchess satin embellished with hand beaded brocaded lace imported from Europe are just a few of the materials featured in this range.

Although slightly pricier then the previous cocktail range, potential bride’s maids and matriculants can now purchase a gown appropriate for their special occasion without having the pay all the unpredictable fees associated with private designer consulting. Most of the gowns have also been designed and created in order to allow alternations to be made if necessary.

“This range was created with much enthusiasm. For the first time, I worked with materials that I’ve never worked with before, and I have learned so much from this range. Once again, I am just so grateful that George Sorensen has given me this amazing opportunity to sell my gowns in their boutique…”
