Somizi shares his top 5 Durban July looks

Somizi Mhlongo took to his social media to share five of his favourite looks at this year’s Hollywoodbets Durban July event. The flamboyant media personality had seven outfit changes and made an entrance that had people grabbing their phones to take photos and videos each time he came back from an outfit change.

One of Somizi’s followers asked the Idols SA judge in one of the event posts how much his budget for the Durban July was and he responded by saying ‘300k’, leaving many followers contemplating on what that amount of money would do for them.

The number five spot on Somizi’s list went to Big Brother Titans winner Khosi Thwala, number four went to Youtuber and influencer Mihlali Ndamase. Nandi Madida took the number three spot, with the reigning Durban July’s best-dressed female Jessica Nkosi taking the second spot.

The number one spot went to non-other than Somgaga in his many outfits.
