The three, hand-picked by the Hunnar Management Agency, are Nkululeko Ncube, Shinga Moyo and Sidumiso Tshuma. They were seen off on Friday by Bulawayo may or Martin Moyo at council chambers.

The fashion show ends on August 24. The founder of Hunnar Management Agency, Gilmore Moyo, said the fashion designers would be showcasing designs with David Tlale, Thula Sindi, Paledi and Massimo.

“This is a great opportunity for them since they would meet many designers and improve their weak areas,” he said.

The mayor and the councilors said the designers would raise the flag on behalf of Bulawayo and the country.

“I am impressed by the fashion designers works.

“As you go to Durban you should see what others are doing and also improve your designs so that your business of designing prospers,” the mayor said.
