In other news, Gebashe recently had a show at the Pandora Showcase, where she unveiled her “Halalisani Shandu” collection dedicated to her grandfather.
“We celebrated the long overdue collection dedicated to my late grandfather, who fell in love with my granny through tennis. I love tennis, and supporting my teacher fund-raise for charity while doing what I love was a blessing.
“Thanks to all who came to support us yesterday, it was really worth it. My beautiful models, ballet schools, dancers and audience that came to support my teacher, Chase, you were all amazing! Thanks, Mr Bosch,” she wrote.
The showcase was a way of helping Gebashe’s teachers raise funds for the Teddy Bear Foundation and the Kitty Puppy Heaven.
