SPLASH CONNECTS - SPORTAHOLICS

Fashion is inspired from its surroundings. It connects the people it drapes and lives among them. It gives them voice and expression. Splash Connects is Splash Fashions’ effort to connect with and bring these multitudinous voices to the fore and feature their myriad talents.

 

Designed for the community and modelled by its real people and talent, Splash Connects in its launch casts its spotlight on sports and fitness professionals.
