Iconic fashion designer and Creative Director of Balmain, Olivier Rousteing sat down with Vogue to recount a life changing journey to South Africa,  to film a fashion film and documentary debuting the visionary collection with Disney for The Lion King.

Olivier speaks candidly about the journey of self-discovery, tracing his roots back to Africa and what it meant to him to connect with the continent of his birth heritage.

In an emotional interview, he shares a moment with our very own Carmen Hickman that resonated deeply with him and which he will carry with him forever.

Carmen is not only a model, she is a mother and inherently maternal figure; and so it was a natural improvisation in a tender moment with Olivier that led her to share words that shaped his experience whilst filming.

Herewith a few exerts from the interview with Vogue.

"The Disney x Balmain: The Lion King collection has been immortalised in a short film by Nigerian director Femi Oladigbolu. Shot across the Western Cape region of South Africa, Rousteing takes on the leading role. The film stars a selection of models wearing his designs that were cast from all over Africa; countries including Kenya, Namibia, Rwanda and Tanzania. As Rousteing puts it, this furthers the cultural impact of the collaboration, “giving local people the chance to shine”. The film itself focuses on the concept of destiny - and in a similar vein to the narrative of The Lion King - Rousteing experienced a personal full-circle moment while filming. 

Actor Carmen Hickman, when playing the wise older Black woman who’s supposed to reveal his future, decided to improvise on set. “She said to me: ‘Don’t forget this is your continent, this is where you come from, and you are loved here. You will always be loved,’” Rousteing explains, hand on heart. “It was magical.”

We are incredibly proud of Carmen, not only for a career defining campaign, but for sharing a part of herself with Olivier, adding depth and purpose to his experience in Cape Town.

Carmen's daughter and Future Face Jordan Hickman also features in the short film and campaign images, as well as accomplished fashion model Sisipho Ntsabo.
A client of this calibre shooting in our Mother City was not only uplifting to the careers of the models at ICE, but also to the film and fashion industry in Cape Town as a whole.

Max is somewhat of an enigma.  A pixie that somehow skipped her way into an international model agency and began her journey as a Future Face with ICE Models.  Photographer Pieter De Jager was inspired by this muse in his Kaleidoscopic editorial for L’Officiel.  Future forward styling by Jelena Jablanovic and hair by Natasha Papadopoulos compliment the tone for this story – Gen Z is inexplicable and unapologetic.

Online shopping has certainly changed the landscape of the fashion and retail industries and although convenience is probably the leading motive behind fingertip-driven shopping sprees; for many the tangible retail experience is something that even our favourite shopping apps cannot replace.  Beautifully and carefully curated spaces that tantalize all the senses, serotonin inducing music, restaurants boasting cuisines from around the world and enticing fragrances that waft from high end stores are some of the factors that keep so many shoppers enthralled by the mall experience.



This is synonymous with the fresh and exhilarating atmosphere that the Hyprop Group has created when designing their malls.  The highly anticipated SS23 campaign produced for a collection of the most iconic shopping centres across South Africa is testimony to the bright, bold and happy experience they intend on giving their customers. It's a total ICE Genetics takeover featuring Asanda, Naledi, Talisha, Tevin, Tia, Van-Lee and Future Face Jordan H.  Keep an eye out for these beautiful, diverse smiling faces in a Hyprop mall near you!
