JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA - FEBRUARY 19: Huguette Marara a model from Rwanda, is fitted with a hair piece before a show with the designer David Tlale, at his studios at the Joburg Fashion Week on February 19 2011, in Johannesburg, South Africa. David Tlale, is an award winning designer and one of South Africa's finest designers, dressing celebrities and others in couture with elegance and high quality material. He held his show at the Mandela Bridge in downtown Johannesburg. A logistical nightmare, the bridge was closed and turned into a catwalk at midnight with hundreds of people watching the show. 92 models, one for each of Nelson Mandela's years walked the 285 meter bridge, maybe the longest catwalk in the world. South African top designers with showed their 2011 Autumn & Winter collections during the 5 day event. (Photo by Per-Anders Pettersson) « less
