In September 2020 on a beautiful Saturday morning, the idea of LEZA was ignited. To repurpose, reuse and recycle forgotten and discarded textiles into one-of-a-kind, fashionable pieces people would treasure, wear, and use for years to come.
In my journey to build this business I have taught myself to sew up to 30 different designs, made hundreds of garments and accessories, explored Cape Town’s industrial areas, and met incredible people from all walks of life and professions.
My ultimate goal with LEZA is to:
1)Educate people about sustainable fashion
2)Embrace locally-made fashion
3)Understand the impact of fast fashion
4)Encourage retailers and businesses to recycle their textile waste
5)Inspire people to go after their creative dreams and become innovators
