As part of the revamp and in keeping with the PALSE Vision 2025, the new website www.palse.africa has gone live and it showcases the best designs from PALSE as well as the stories behind the scenes of the making of the apparel. Segapo also shared that bigger plans were afoot as PALSE delves into other businesses including water bottling, homeware that covers kitchen aprons, oven gloves and coffee mugs. The new designs will also include bathroom, bed linen and scatter cushions. Accessories such as handbags, socks and ties are also in development. A new range of socks, the Lehlohonolo – inspired by the Basotho blanket – went on sale in February and has become an instant best-seller.
