And the winner of Project Runway SA Season 1 is…

The first season of Project Runway came to an end, and a winner announced. Kentse Masilo was announced the first ever winner of the show.

Since her first day in the competition, she proved herself by always being a step ahead of the rest.

As the winner of Project Runway SA, Kentse has earned herself a pop-up store at Paris Fashion Week. She has also been awarded mentorship and prizes worth R400,000 from Edgars, a Lexus CT 200h luxury compact hybrid worth R530,000 among others.

Speaking about her win, she was evidently excited.

“I am so happy to have won (the competition). Because the finale was pre-recorded I had to keep it in for a while but I am so glad that I can now celebrate and let everyone know that I am the winner.”
