The Social Market
Thanks to Maitele Wawe and Sizo Dlezi, the founders of the Social Market, Pretoria’s fashion scene has stepped up a lot of notches!

The Social Market is like any other market with food stalls, clothing stalls and music for the perfect chilled out mood.
The difference is the nonconformity of the fashionistas that gather at Mushroom Lounge every first Sunday of the month rocking crazy beautiful outfits that left us feeling as though we were flipping pages from a 3D fashion catalogue.
A social market for the people of Pretoria involved in growing the capital city in terms of art, fashion, food and music. “
Before the Social Market, Pretoria had very limited spaces for creatives to come together and share ideas, since its birth word has been travelling across social media networks that the Social Market is the place to be.
Please Note: The Social Market has changed venues to the Hatfield Plaza’s parking lot from the 7th of June 2015.
We rubbed shoulders with the crazy beautiful; here are loads of pictures of the 3rd of May’s Social Market:
