BLACK PANTHER BEST-DRESSED MEN

Mpho Popps

Our favourite comedian understood the assignment. His outfit was on point with with a zebra print tuxedo jacket with an embellished skirt and pants paired with feathers as shoulder pads. The outfit was designed by Ephymol.

African power to you Mpho Popps.

Robot Boii

Robot Boii kept it classic and sleek with his all black Nao Serati suit with a statement necklace straight out of the Black Panther movie. Sometimes classic is always the best way to go.

Sino Msolo

Musician Sino Msolo gave us fashion with a capital F in his MaXhosa Africa ensemble. His look had a lot of colour and texture which is just how the movie’s wardrobe.

He definitely was inspired by the late Riky Rick who would always support African designers.

Mzukisi Mbane

Designer to the stars, and the man behind Connie Chiume’s dress, Mzukisi Mbane of Imprint ZA dared in colour. He came through rocking a multi-coloured kimono with matching pants paired with a yellow hat and futuristic sunglasses.

Anele Mdoda

Media personality, and radio host at 947, Anele Mdoda went the premiere wearing a white and navy dress that looked like a bath robe. We expected more from you!

Kamo Mphela

A white suit isn’t part of the Wakanda Forever theme. Kamo Mphela dressed as if she was going to the office. Could we have stayed at home perhaps?
