Renowned South African designer David Tlale has set his sights on New York City, opening his first U.S. showroom in Garment District. Tlale, who made waves at NY Fashion Week in 2012, now has a permanent home in the fashion capital to showcase his stunning creations.
The journey to the Big Apple began in 2023 when Tlale knew he had to be at the heart of the fashion industry. After exploring various locations, he found the perfect spot in the Garment District.
With a career spanning two decades, David Tlale has made a name for himself on a global scale, winning awards and presenting his collections at prestigious fashion shows worldwide.
While his main office remains in South Africa, he sees the New York showroom as an expansion of his brand, bridging the gap between continents.
Looking ahead, David Tlale dreams of opening a store in New York within the next eighteen months. He attributes his success to faith and perseverance, expressing gratitude for following his passion for design instead of pursuing a career in auditing.
As Tlale celebrates this significant milestone, we toast to his determination and creativity, grateful that he chose the path that led him to share his designs with the world from the heart of New York City.
