Count down to the long waited Dbn July.....

2012 Durban July Theme

A MATERIAL WORLD? Seven billion people, the latest count.
Concern for the planet, the energies mount. This event is red, that’s for sure.
But support for green, is part of the cure. Spare a thought, for Mother Earth.
Need to save her, for all we’re worth. Sustainably harvested, natural, organic.
Alternative fibres, no time for panic. All these words, what do they mean?
For a start, change your routine. Reduce, respect, reconstruct, ‘My Dear’.
Recycle, repair, rethink, ‘Monsieur’. Show support, through what you wear.
Or what it’s made of, concern with flair. Glitz and sparkle, are definitely in.
The overall impression, is what will win. So for this day - Love red! Think green.
Your earth-friendly ensemble, will steal the scene! - sourced: Durban July website.

And so the long awaited Dbn July is upon us, this year's theme "A material world" has a twist to it; caring for mother nature and the world( the whole "going green" thing). With a few ideas that have been hinted above. It's gonna be interesting to see how fashionistas translate that into gorgeous "show stopper" pieces. Here are some of my ideas or rather outfits that i think may be seen at the July. If not, they should have been considered....
