Apparently, it is never too late to step into the wonderful
world of fashion. Well, it is never too late to use your name for the sake of
fashion that is. Especially, if your name is one of the most recognizable names
around world but in this case it is the most recognizable prisoner number. In recent news, South Africa’s former
president Nelson Mandela will be debuting his clothing line at 46664 pronounced
‘four, double six, six four’ at New York fashion week. The number 46664 was
Nelson Mandela’s prisoner number when he was jailed on Robben Island, which is
off the coast Cape Town, South Africa in 1964. Now, he has decided to use it
for social change and awareness through fashion.
