Mnqobi is a multi-disciplined creative (still have to figure out an official term). His journey started as a child, modeling for Ice Internationals at the age of nine doing "back to school" campaigns. When he turned thirteen, he established a modeling agency with a friend. The agency did well for some time, but in the year of 2016 the agency collapsed, and we had to close our doors. At the time Mnqobi was slowly transitioning into the fashion industry. That same year he began working on developing his clothing line, which is a semi-couture line. This is when his career in fashion design started, after high school, he was fortunate enough to study Fashion and Textile Design at the Durban University of Technology. In 2022, he made it to the top 12 finalists for the SAFW student competition.
