SheerGlow Hair & Beauty, Amtec Motors, Bulawayo Polytechnic &

“The idea behind the 5 Iconic
Personalities concept is to bring a realisation that fashion, music, sport and
other creative forms are linked, hence we ought to celebrate our different
sectors jointly. For one to be on stage or on ground performing, they ought to
do so in a costume or kit, hence fashion as an industry is interlinked to
everything, same goes for music and lighting.” – Gilmore Tee, Producer of
Intwasa Fashion Show.
