Fashion designer not happy with Londie London over failed payment of clothes
Londie London has been called out by a fashion business owner Pfadzani Exodus, for unpaid clothing bills.
According to Sunday World, the singer and designer had an agreement in 2019 – The agreement is that Londie would wear her brand for free in exchange for promoting and marketing it on social media and at high profile events.
Exodus said the celebrity came to her boutique in Randburg, Joburg, and asked her to give her three clothing items to sell to her client because she did not have the required items in stock.
She gave the star several clothing items worth R17 000 to sell to her clients but refused to make payment for the clothes.
“I did not have a problem because she was the ambassador of my brand. I even told her that for as long as she continues to wear my label and promote it, I don’t have a problem,” she said.
However, their relationship and partnership went sour after Londie allegedly began to manipulate things.
The singer reportedly visited the designer’s store in Rosebank and collected three items, including a velvet suit and wrap dress, to promote them.
Pfadzani said that she was surprised when London sent her R3 000 via eWallet, instead of the R17,000.
The designer said the singer sent a WhatsApp message where she explained that she sent R3k because she was tired of the threats.
The songstress further said the money sent was for half of the R7 000 for the clothes she took from her, even though she had not worn the clothes because they were not fitting her.
“Thought about it and paying your 7k (sic). I don’t want any drama, honestly. You’ve threatened me enough; I have not opened your parcel yet, but I thought about it, and I don’t like what’s happening.”
“It’s been years of you threatening me about a payment we never agreed on because you switched up when you couldn’t send the right-fitting clothes. You’ll have all of it by
month-end.”
The fashion business owner said Zulu owe her R17 000 and not R7 000 as she claimed. She also told Zulu that in addition to the R17 000, she owed her another R8 500 for the clothes she took from her and lost.
