Njengoko inkampani idale amavumba kule minyaka ili-12 idlulileyo iphefumlelwe ngabamelwane baseNew York (ukongeza kwiindawo ezimbalwa zeholide ezikufutshane nezithandwa ngabantu baseNew York) abakaze bakhuthazwe nasesitalatweni.
Yonke into etshintshileyo nge-B9, iBond No. 9 yeyokuqala yevumba ebizwa ngegama lesitalato ngokuchanekileyo. Kwaye ayisiyiyo nayiphi na indlela: ichaphazelwe yiBond Street. UMseki uLaurice Rahme uthethe noMkhangeli malunga neli vumba lilikhulu… nokuba likhulu kangakanani icandelo lokuthengiswa kwezindlu nomhlaba kulomnombo wevumba elimnandi.
Lithini ibali elingasemva kweB9? Kule minyaka ili-12 idlulileyo, besizimisele ukwenza ivumba elimnandi kuyo yonke indawo yaseNew York. Ngoku, sikwiingingqi ezingama-58, kodwa kulo nyaka, sibonisa uthando ngeBond Street.
Yintoni eyenza iBond Street ikhetheke kangaka? Ndilapha, kwisitalato i-9 Bond ukusukela ngo-1999. Ngaphesheya kwesitrato sisuka kwindawo yokutyela efanayo, ebizwa ngokuba yiBondst, kwisitalato iBond 6. Kwaye une-Il Buco apha kwenye ibhloko. Luhlobo lwaseYurophu lwesitrato kuba lusondele kakhulu kwaye akukho gumbi lingaphezulu kakhulu kwamanye amashishini kwaye amatye axabisekileyo mahle. Yilali encinci ethandekayo esinayo apha.
Kutheni kuthathe ixesha elide ukubiza isiqholo emva kwesi sitrato? Ndandiye ndibambelele kwimipu yam, ukwenza iziqholo zobumelwane. Ndenze iChinatown, iPark Avenue, iMadison, iChelsea, iWall Street, iHarlem, kodwa khange ize kum ukwenza isitrato. Ngoku isitalato sifumana konke oku kupapashwa, kundenze ndakujonga.

Ngoku emva kweminyaka eli-12 besicinga ukuba sikhule ngokwaneleyo njengegama ukubaleka ne-B9. Ndiyayithanda i-3-D kuba i-luxe kakhulu kwaye yile nto isitalato iba yiyo.
Kutheni le nto eli vumba li-unisex? Uyazi, maninzi amadoda kwisitrato iBond. Yiparadesi yoyilo, ke kuye kwafuneka ndenze ivumba le-unisex. Wakha wahlala eBond Street?

Ngokusisiseko, silandela ukuthengiswa kwezindlu.
Ngubani owaziyo iziqholo kunye nomhlaba nezorhwebo ezinxulumene ngokusondeleyo? Yiyo kuphela kwendlela endinokwenza ngayo olu phawu! Xa ndenza i-Hudson [ivumba] kunyaka ophelileyo, ndiyenzile ngaphambi kokuba ubumelwane bube bukhulu, kodwa kungenxa yokuba bendifunda amaphepha endlu yam.
