Fashion designer Edmore Chagonda, who has been doing well in the clothing industry, has ventured into music. The 23-year-old artist, who is affectionately known by his clients as Eddy Chaggy, fronts Fashion Madness label and has been doing well in the industry. Edmore is a fashion designer under the name Fashion Madness Collection, who designs clothes in the comfort of his Chitungwiza home.

“I chose the name Fashion Madness Collection as a name for my designer wear because I create unique crazy designs which are extraordinary. I also owe it to my clients because they love these designs madly,” said Eddy.

He has sold most of his designs to a well-known fashion shop called Sage which is situated in the city centre.

Eddy is also known for making designer clothes for Zimbabwean celebrities like Pokello. He is also famous for making designer dresses for Miss Global 2013-2014 and Miss Heritage.

In an interview, the passionate Eddy shed more light on his transition to music.

“To me designing clothes is an art, and music is also an art. If one is talented in both areas why not utilise the two gifts? After all, one in not entitled to one art,” he said.

Eddy’s music is a touch of urban-afro. He sings about love, life and the social conflicts he sees in the society.

He has two singles to his name titled “I am on My Way” and “It’s Not Fair”.

“I have a passion for music and fashion. This drove me to release these two singles but it does not mean I am diverting from fashion designing” he said.

Eddy said the only reason he was delaying in producing an album was that his sister, who acts as a backing vocalist, was still busy with her academic work and had thus little time for the studio.

Eddy hopes to make more eye-catching designs in the fashion industry at the same time making beautiful music.

Only the sky is the limit for the talented young man.
