Fashion Designer Recreates Bonang’s Outfit Originally Made By Veekee James: “She Tried”

  • A fashion designer has shown her ability to recreate the works of her colleagues as her client made the order
  • The client had requested the dress fashion designer Veekee James made for South African presenter Bonang Matheba
  • What the client got was similar but the colours were different, however, social media users could tell the difference between Bonang’s dress and what the other client got

A lady desired to rock the dress South African presenter, Bonang Matheba, wore for the Miss South Africa beauty pageant recently, and she got her fashion designer to make it.

Celebrity stylist Victoria James, aka Veekee James, made Bonang’s stylish mermaid outfit. The lady got a gold, orange, and blue outfit for her recreated style and she paid N100k for it.

Just like Bonang’s dress, the lower parts were made in a pleated design. While Bonang’s dress was off-shoulder, the lady’s outfit was also made in the off-shoulder pattern but the former had an elongated design on her chest area.

The recreated style had a piece of fabric ted on the lady’s hands which were absent in Bonang’s outfit. Several netizens rated both outfits and noted that the lady’s fashion designer made a good attempt. Regardless, they spotted the differences.

Watch both outfits in the slides below:
