Orapeleng Module Style Avenue Bridal Lookbook featuring South Africa’s ‘Queen B’ Bonang Matheba & Sweetheart Nandi Madida

You’ll love every bit of this bridal lookbook by South African designer, Orapeleng Module, featuring South Africa’s Queen B, Bonang Matheba and Sweetheart Nandi Madida. It’s the perfect inspiration for any bride searching for a second look for her big day or the edgy, fashion forward bride, looking for something totally out of the norm.

“When it comes to my designs, I know my clients and I know what they want, but Bee and Rich really know what’s current and as I found out during the shoot, they really know how to present the collection better; I think they executed the lookbook beautifully. Designer Anita Ferreira also came through for us with her incredible hat designs which complemented the collection perfectly,” designer Orapeleng tells ELLE South Africa in an interview, referring to the shoot’s stylist, Bee Diamondhead, and designer Rich Mnisi, who was the Creative Director behind the lookbook, shot by photographer, Aart Verrips.

On collaborations in fashion the designer said; “As a creative, one can’t do everything themselves, we need to draw on each other’s strengths. That really came through strongly for me during this shoot.” Read more of the interview here.

Orapeleng has been in the industry for four years now and he has dressed the likes of Bonang, Minnie, Nomzamo and others for red carpet events. For this lookbook, he called on his famous clients, TV host Nandi Madida and Bonang Matheba, to feature alongside the models. See the lookbook below.
