Balu Legacy Boutique

Cape Town


Balu Nivison's designs using original print fabrics are temptingly displayed in this chic boutique in one of the heritage cottages behind Cavendish Square mall. There's a cafe and juice bar here, too, as well as jewellery, essential oils and more – including a few pieces for men by Balu's son Benjamin.
