Bonang Matheba in Gert Johan Coetzee.
This dress in nice (I guess). The sleeves needed to be ripped off before she exited her car though. (Not necessary). Bonang’s relationship with Gert Johan Coetzee has worked well for her over the years, but it’s time to explore other designers. I’d really love to see her take more fashion risks, unorthodox structures and shapes. Gert is safe but safe can get boring. I must say though I’m really enjoying the faux bob she rocking. Hair and make-up are perfect. I love the fact that she’s doing something different with her hair.

Yes girl! Come through! I. LOVE. THIS. LOOK. This is A LOOK. The dress just screams fabulous. Hair and make-up is perfect. Definitely best dressed for me on the red carpet. We need more of this regularly on red carpets. There really isn’t much else to say. She did the damn thing here

Beautiful woman. The cape is very unnecessary. The nude illustration was enough on its own. Love the hair. It’s a lot but I love it anyway.

Nadia Nakai
This hurts me just writing this because I really do love Nadai so very much. However, this is highly basic. The top does not sit well on her at all. I mean, even for prom this dress is a no. I really had high expectations. I’m am hurt at whoever her stylist was who thought this was a red carpet worthy dress. No.

Lerato Kganyago
A suit is such a tricky thing to wear. Do not underestimate it. If the fit is wrong, the whole look is ruined. Unfortunately this suit does not do Lerato any justice here. This is why fittings before award shows are so essential. It’s to make sure the fit is just right and that the whole look is cohesive. She also over-accessorized with the neck pieces and it actually makes her neck look shorter or like she doesn’t have one to begin with. The jacket does not fit her at all. The shoes are also a poor choice. Overall bad styling here. This could easily have been a great look but poor fitting ruined it all. Better luck next time!

Kelly Khumalo
The colour here is nice. I’m done with the nude illustrations though. Like enough! The turtle neck thing she’s got going on is just odd. Bad hair. Just no. It’s a no from me.

Ntando Duma
This look is a great example, for me, of less is more. This is a really simple, really basic look but she really looks stunning here. The top is all the accessory she needs so I’m so glad she didn’t add anything more to it. The make-up is just right. Simple but elegant! The only thing she needed here was a pair of nipple covers, but other than that: perfect!

Jessica Nkosi
Jessica is really actually a very beautiful woman. So it’s really so disappointing to see her in looks that are ‘almost’ the one. She ‘almost’ had it here. The fabric of the skirt plus the volume don’t work here, mixed with the different fabric of the top is all a lot. She needed to simplify it here with one fabric. It just all looks a little unkempt and messy.

Pearl Modiadie
I really am very confused here. The dress altogether just looks very awkward here. The skirt starts so low in such an awkward place, the net is highly unnecessary. The strange thing for me however is that her styling on her Instagram and TV is always A1. So I am so astounded as to how it could have gone so wrong when slaying is a daily thing for her? No girl.

I had to have a look at this several times before I could really be sure of my opinion but I love it. Velvet has made a comeback and I love it. It just looks naturally sexy on her. I also love the fact that she’s moving away from those sheer dresses now. I think they have been overdone now, it’s enough. Love this look. It’s simple, sometimes simple is enough.
