The CEO of Afrikan Soul Headquarters Productions, Western Cape representative for Fashion Revolution SA and a noted voice in the drive to support the local industry, Cyril Naicker talks sustainable fashion and the importance of wearing local.

Why We Should All Buy SA!

For as long as I can remember, I’ve loved fashion and been one of those people who swims upstream – in 2003 these two impulses collided and changed my life during a trip to India. I was working as a buyer for a large clothing company at the time, but seeing Delhi’s manufacturing district with its shoddy factories, dense pollution and exhausted workers was so shocking to me that I decided to leave the fashion business altogether.

After a few years of working in hospitality and eventing, I was ready to return to the world of fashion. But this time around, I was on a mission: I wanted to feel a purpose for what I did. And so, I joined the international Fashion Revolution movement as Western Cape representative for the South African drive.
