<div>How does one capture love?</div><div><br /></div><div>Cape Town based photographer Robin Jones captures the warmth and intimacy between Elli and Edwin’s love in this beautiful collection of photos.</div><div><br /></div><div>Elli and Edwin met in Barcelona by chance whilst both on vacation. It was love at first sight for these two, as they became a couple the day they met.</div><div><br /></div><div>“I never understood the saying… ‘when you know, you know’, until that day.” Elli says as she fondly recalls the memory.</div><div><br /></div><div>“For this shoot, I can remember the day pretty well because we were freshly in love, and we couldn’t take our hands off one another. Having a long-distance relationship is not always fun, but when we saw each other after that long break, we were just so happy to be in each other’s arms again.”</div><div><br /></div><div>As these two kindred spirits relish in one another’s presence, another question is posed to them: What do you love about each other?</div><div><br /></div><div>“What I love about Edwin - he is honest, grown, loyal, loving, caring, protective, sensitive, and patient with me. He has such a beautiful soul and such a positive energy around him and the moment he smiles at me I´m gone. He makes me feel safe and I found home within him. Life feels so easy with him, and everything finally makes sense.</div><div><br /></div><div>Edwin smiles, “Elli is a remarkable human being. Her smile is contagious and takes me to places I can’t explain. She is so selfless, kind and her love for family is unbelievable. She is my number one supporter and always motivates me to strive for greatness. I feel loved at any given moment and that is a priceless feeling.”</div><div><br /></div><div>Models : Elli Herfellner ( @elliherfellner ) and Edwin Olympio ( @olympioo_ )</div>

<div>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.</div><div><br /></div><div>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.</div><div><br /></div><div>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.</div><div><br /></div><div>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.</div><div><br /></div><div>Herewith a few exerts from the interview with Vogue.</div><div><br /></div><div>&quot;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.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div>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.”</div><div><br /></div><div>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.</div><div><br /></div><div>Carmen&#39;s daughter and Future Face Jordan Hickman also features in the short film and campaign images, as well as accomplished fashion model Sisipho Ntsabo.</div><div>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.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div>For the full article please visit https://www.vogue.co.uk/bc/disney-and-balmains-the-lion-king-collection</div><div>As well as the Balmain website https://us.balmain.com/en/experience/disney-x-balmain-the-lion-king</div><p>This project was proudly cast by Cape Town based casting director Iain Milne of Casting Co and facilitated by Groundglass production company.<br /></p><div><br /></div>

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!

Happy shopping babes;)

Introducing Future Face, Jack Mcleod.


Behind those brooding eyes and floppy curls, is a talented young man with a keen interest in graphic design, music and the pursuit of something more meaningful than a big Tik Tok following.

Get to know a bit more about him in our Q&A.



Q: How did you get scouted by ICE Models?



A: I submitted photos via the website along with my sister in 2020. We then received emails from ICE showing interest. I visited ICE Models Cape Town in 2021 for the first time to discuss possibly working with them one day, but while I completed my schooling in the Eastern Cape I had to be patient. I moved to Cape Town in early 2023 and signed with ICE. So far I have had some really great shoots and am learning so much about the industry and myself.



Q: Other than modelling, what other interests do you have?



A: My other interests include practicing mindfulness, I enjoy meditation, as well as gym and graphic design.  I study at the Red and Yellow Creative School of business.



Q: Favourite musician / band?



A: If I had to pick one favourite musician, it would probably be Fred Again, but I love so many different types of artists and music.



Q: Tell us something quirky about yourself?



A: I have quite an odd sense of humour and I find random things funny. There is definitely more to me than meets the eye.



Q: What is a dream campaign you would love to book one day?



A: My dream campaign would probably be to work with Nike, because I love their clothing, shoes and gear.

Sit down with us as we get to know Rafaela.



Q - How did you get into Modeling and what were you doing before?

A - I have been modelling for three years, and before that I was a pharmacist. I finished my pharmacy college in the middle of this year. I’ve always loved fashion and everything about modelling, but I never felt like I was enough to the industry so I never tried before, and then one day I realized that I was throwing away my dream without even trying. That is when the things started to happen! I went to an agency in Brazil and started to work weekly with huge brands that I could never imagine that I would be their face one day. So, believing in my dreams and working hard brought me here to Cape Town!



Q - What do you like to do in your free time?

A - I love running and workouts in general, I’m always doing some kind of sport like boxing or Muay Thai, but the part of me that likes to mix training and art loves pole dancing.



Q - What is your most memorable trip and why?

A - When I was in London with my best friend 6 years ago, I was just an adolescent without my parents in another country trying to learn English. It was so exciting! It made me feel that I could go anywhere I wanted to!

A - Italian food in general, but I really love salad bowls too.



Q - If you could master a skill, what would it be?

A - I guess I really would like to have the skill of flying, to feel the freedom of it.
