Confections x Collections, presented by the Mount Nelson, a Belmond hotel and curated by Twyg, is an annual showcase of a new wave of designers on the African continent who have emerged with a multiplicity of stories in the form of textiles and fashion. Each designer has a unique fashion point of view and collectively their work represents layers of meaning located on the continent. Twyg’s curation considers mastery, slow, high-quality, trans-seasonal, and ethical production. Hosted in the hotel’s lounge, Mount Nelson’s pastry chef Vicky Gurovich collaborates with each designer to create bespoke confectionary creations that harmonise with their designs.
