Okay, let’s tackle this. So Sibabalwe has 10+ years of experience as a textile designer, which is a strong foundation. Her skills in textile design, mood boards, and fashion illustration are in demand. Location is Cape Town, South Africa, which is a competitive market. According to industry benchmarks, textile designers with similar experience and skills can charge around R 50–R 150 per hour. Considering her education from NABA _ Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti Milano, which is a reputable institution, I’ll estimate her rate to be on the lower side of this range. Maybe around R 75 per hour, which is roughly equivalent to $5–$6 USD per hour.
