It will not be her first time in New York. Her last visit was for travel reasons and this time is because she has bagged a major deal as the brand ambassador for renowned skincare brand. Influencer Lerato Kgamanyane will be the official face representing the brand at the prestigious Fashion Week in New York City. 

NEW YORK FASHION WEEK

Renowned for her influence in the fashion and beauty sphere, Lerato is set to bring Mzansi classy distinctive style to the Big Apple. She is looking forward to the Alice + Olivia show and hopes to get front-row seats. "I really love how bold and memorable Stacey Bendet's designs are. I also love how they're such an immaculate reflection of her!" Lerato says. With all the hard work she had put in, Lerato says she manifested this moment. "I'd be lying if I said I didn't expect this massive deal," she says. "I know what I bring to the table, but also, I'm a big believer in speaking opportunities, ones that seem out of reach more especially, over one's life. When you can declare and believe you deserve something, all that's left is to put the work in and go get it!"

ICONIC

Being the face of such a big brand is a dream come true for the Johannesburg-born star. "This means a lot to me, to be able to travel abroad with a brand that is so nostalgic to me. I knew the brand from when I was a teenager who battled skin issues and having the opportunity to network with like-minded beauty and fashion lovers is something I don't take for granted. A true full-circle moment."
