This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. In a gently instructive TEDxJohannesburg 2014 talk, South African fashion luminary Marianne Fassler explores her perspectives on the big questions of fashion: What is it? Where does it come from? What does it mean?
Multiple award-winning Marianne Fassler has been the owner and director of Mode Avantgarde for the past 34 years. With a BA Hons from the University of the Witwatersrand, Fassler is a three-time Catherine Award-winner and received the SA Fashion Awards Lifetime Achievement Award in 2005, amongst many others.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
