Archive marked the debut of its Spring/Summer 2025 collection with an intimate red carpet screening of Spaces That Feel Like Home, a documentary by Christian Mangachena starring Kozo Zwane at The Bioscope in Milpark on Wednesday, 22 October.
The event brought together figures from South Africa’s fashion, music, and creative industries to celebrate the intersection of style, storytelling, and homegrown artistry. Guests experienced a first look at Spaces That Feel Like Home — a sensory exploration of home, memory, and movement as well as Archive’s SS25 collection.
Directed by Christian Mangachena and starring Kozo Zwane, the film captures the creative rhythm of Kozo’s world, reflecting the spirit of the SS25 collection: relaxed streetwear pieces rooted in authenticity and crafted for contemporary life. The screening invited audiences to see artistry as a living narrative — one shaped by emotion, place, and identity.
Guests also got to enjoy a live performance by Kozo Zwane, adding a live artistic dimension to the evening, embodying the collection’s themes of personal expression and belonging.
“Spaces That Feel Like Home is a conversation about where creativity comes from, and the environments that nurture it,” said Dean Williams, Brand Development Manager at Archive. “For Archive SS25, we wanted to not just showcase our apparel, but to bring that idea to life in a way that feels honest, local, and human.”
Guests walked the red carpet in their own interpretations of Archive style, creating a vibrant visual narrative that echoed the brand’s balance of craftsmanship and ease. The evening reaffirmed Archive’s role as a hub for creative culture — a brand deeply rooted in storytelling and collaboration.
