My first focus is on one of my favourite labels in South Africa, not saying much about them, I believe they let their own profile say more about who they are. This is a snippet on where it all began and who they are from their own perspective:
23 year old student and designer Thatiso “Vuittots” Dube has been causing ripples in the South African youth fashion and streetwear industry with his label GALXBOY, pronounced “Galaxy Boy” or “Gal ex Boy”.
GALXBOY has come a long way since its establishment in 2008. Inspired by the success of the popular South African streetwear brand AmaKipKip, Vuittots started a t-shirt brand called “Cheeseboy”.
However, Vuittots decided not to give up on his passion, and soon he re-launched his label with the revised name “CheeseGalxBoy”, which later evolved to “GALXBOY”, a name that Vuittots feels appeals to a broader market across borders and age groups
Vuittots describes his street wear brand as an embodiment of “what girls do because of boys and what boys do because of girls” and designs his clothing to suit men and women of all ages and races who are not afraid to be fashionably eclectic and experimental. - S.Mona (Sibz_Steez)
