Fairtrade Fashion from South African Social Enterprise – Township

Township is a not-for-profit social enterprise that partners with women-owned cooperatives to create accessories, clothing and home decor. Designs are inspired by the colours, textures, patterns, ingenuity and general vibrance of South Africa's townships.

Apparently, if you stop by the Township boutique in summer, you fill find one of their cooperative members sewing or crocheting by hand – a craft passed down from their elders. 

If in Cape Town, see it for yourself at the Township Boutique in the Cape Quarter.

Also check out Township's Facebook page for more info and pictures.

I always enjoy reading your posts but don't often comment.

I came across this site and thought you may like to see it, as it seems to have some really cool stuff.

The fashionista to put it basically, life for style. She is always equipped in the newest products, so it goes without saying that she likes her developer brands. She is on the innovative of style when it comes to items and jewelry and would withstand any discomfort or irritation to be seen in the most recent pattern.
