The South African fashion family has lost a bright, bold, and beautiful light 🕊️
We are deeply saddened by the passing of the visionary designer Sandile "Alfalfa" Mlambo, founder of House of Alfalfa.
His incredible contributions to our local fashion landscape and his fearless passion will never be forgotten.
The Fifth Boutique team extends our heartfelt thoughts and prayers to his loved ones during this incredibly difficult time.
His life will be celebrated tomorrow, Thursday, 18 June, at St Mary's Hall in Greyville from 3 PM - 6 PM.
Rest in peace, King. Thank you for sharing your brilliant gift with The Fifth before your departure.
We will do everything possible to keep your legacy going.
