Fashion designer Veekee James, also known as Victoria James, shared her experience creating the first outfit for Bonang Matheba at Miss World South Africa on Saturday, August 10.
She mentioned that her inspiration comes from God and that she believes she can achieve anything through Christ, who gives her strength.
The dedicated 29-year-old shared that she created Bonang’s dress for last year’s beauty pageant (2023). When Bonang contacted her three months before this year’s competition, she quickly got started. It was the toughest design she has ever worked on.
Bonang expressed pride in the stylist’s work and praised her commitment. She also mentioned that she would continue to turn to Veekee for future outfits.
The Akwa-Ibom state indigene explained that she struggled to find the right style for Bonang until just a week before the event, and she finished the dress only two days before the beauty pageant.
She expressed gratitude to her team for helping her create the beautiful blue, green, and gold mermaid off-shoulder dress that amazed many online.
