Johannesburg fashion designer Suzaan Heyns collaborated with photographer Brett Rubin to shoot her origami-inspired Spring/Summer 2009 collection, which was one of the highlights of this year’s Cape Town Fashion Week. “We decided to use a natural setting that was so obscure it almost seemed ‘unnatural’.
