This is what Twitter fashion police thought of Somizi and Mohale’s wedding #somhaletraditionalwedding
The new Mr & Mr changed several times throughout the course of their Big Day ending up in extravagant ensembles by local designer to the stars Gert-Johan Coetzee. @gertjohancoetzee took us to Egypt. Perfect for our theme. African traditional wedding,” said Somizi of his and his groom’s custom outfits on Instagram. Coetzee also dressed some of the many celebrities who attended the pair’s nuptials, including TV presenters Bonang Matheba and Lerato Kganyago.
Other famous faces on the guest list were rapper Cassper Nyovest, singer Kelly Khumalo, model Babalwa Mneno, EFF leader Julius Malema, athlete Caster Semenya, and actresses Khanyi Mbau and Pearl Thusi.
The social media fashion police — usually a fairly catty bunch — largely raved about everyone’s African-inspired attire. I swear the invite probably said dress to kill or don’t come at all,” said one Twitter user.
“The fashion here was awesome. They really put effort. This is what red carpet events should look like,” agreed another.
Here’s what some of the others had to say:
I honestly didn't see any bad dressed.... better than samas and Durban July outfits by far #SomHaleTraditionalWedding— IG:@Cliff_Mampz⭕️ (@Cliff_Mampz) September 29, 2019
