Yvonne Gulamhusein, a name reverberated in the local and
international fashion circles bid adieu to her life’s ramp Monday.
Yvonne was in the lead in the fashion designing line and has made
spectacular designs that have kept wearers want more. She has always
been a sensation and news wherever she went.
In England she walked barefoot and made headlines. The sophisticated
woman mixed with the biggest socialites in the country.
She began her career as a cabaret dancer and everything she wore was
nothing compared to the ‘in’ style. It was a mix of everything. She met
her husband Onally at her dancing classes and what she told her friends
laughing was, “See what you did, I went for dancing classes and he asked
me to dance and this is where I am today”. She will be remembered fondly
by her husband, family, friends and fashion fans world around.
