Menlyn also champions local fashion with proudly South African brands like Bathu, GalXBoy, Konkhe Kuhamba Kahle, Ama Kip Kip, Blank Collection, Rico Studio, and Shesha positioning the centre as the ultimate destination for fashion that reflects both global trends and homegrown threads.

Trend Highlights: This Season’s Must-Haves

Menlyn’s “Destination Winter” campaign is designed to make seasonal styling easy and accessible for every shopper. From oversized-silhouettes and textured layers to the return of tailored elegance, each look has been curated to reflect what’s hot right now – and what’s wearable.

Central to the season’s palette is Mocha, Pantone’s 2025 Colour of the Year. This rich, velvety tone is woven into several pod looks, paired with everything from buttery neutrals to contrasting pops of colour. Whether it’s in the form of a luxe wool coat, structured trousers, or layered knitwear, Mocha takes centre stage as the must-have hue of the season.
