We were in our feels when Boris donned a MaXhosa sweatshirt for a fashion shoot. Designer Laduma Ngxokolo’s rich threads never cease to amaze us.

6. Tracee Ellis Ross

Is wearing a plunging neckline dress with flare arms that give it just enough sexiness without losing its elegant feel. The dress is body hugging and accentuates her figure.

A firm favourite on our list when it comes to stylish looks, this dress is just another example of why we love Tracee’s style.

7. Jidenna

Our version of the prince of prints, the classic man hitmaker is never too afraid to take bold and risky fashion moves by pairing colours and prints which well, only he can pull off. He is seen here rocking formal pants with a shirt and finished the look off with a shawl.
