Sometimes you just gotta DO something!
Tonight's MAF Battle drew some locals from the South East side of AMS to witness some of the new fashion talent, from that part of town...
The competitors were Elsewerk [a super-talent but her show was somewhat unco-ordinated] Chanelva Maclean, Cynthia Jhinnoe, Lisa Knonno [we voted her 2nd place, but at 17 years old, she her 'Beauty & Brains' collection was so creative, & a beautiful storyline, for someone so young..freakin 'ell!]...& the winner was Wi-am Designs. She's of Morrocan descent, never studied fashion design, & just created her collection from fusing her traditional culture with her Amsterdam one. Not necessarily original, but just the fact that she designed from intuition & forming things naturally was great, & how the pieces were finished were EXCELLENT.
When she was announced as a winner, her fans just rushed the stage...
MAF's about giving people a chance..I hope she can take it.
