The” Madiba Shirt” lives on

by Ayanda Sithole
Thapelo Mokoena in a Nelson Mandela inspired shirt

Father of the Nation Nelson Mandela was often seen in colourful and vividly printed shirts so much so that his look was coined the phrase the “Madiba Shirt”. To honour his impeccable and bold sense of style we take a look at a few celebs that leave us charmed by the way they rock African and graphic print.

Khuli Chana is no stranger to dabbling with colour and every time he dons a print we can’t help but swoon.

@primrose.hb My favorite Dj!!! Thank you for holding me down!!! It was fun rocking the stage with you!! ?? #stockholm #absolutfamily #onesource

Jidenna is the master of print clash. Whether it be a full suit or just a pop of eye catching graphics he always gets it spot on.

We love how the younger generation can fuse urban street fashion and print to create interesting outfits. Nasty C is winning in this look.

Can’t see no bump ?? #StringsAndBling

Thapelo Mokoena can do no in our eyes when it comes to style. He can make anything look like second skin but we have to admit we like him best in print.

Happy Friday #TIA✊????
