Media mogul and businesswoman Basetsana Kumalo recently hosted a three-day birthday celebration where the who’s who in the media and business world gathered to celebrate the five decades of Bassie.
The birthday celebrations held in Cape Town started on Friday, running up to Sunday. Every single event screamed luxury with all the guests dressed to the nines.
Friday’s theme colour was purple with the venue draped in beautiful purple flowers that hanged from the ceiling of the entrance, dropping almost to the heads of guests. The lighting inside the venue also gave a beautiful midnight feel. The guests did not disappoint as they looked elegant in all shades of purple.
The birthday queen changed to a few outfits looking breathtaking in each one of them.
Here’s a few of Bassie’s looks.
