It was the battle of the fabric as politicians graced the red carpet at the SONA 2024. With the partnership between Parliament and ProudlySA in a bid to support Mzansi's fashion industry, ministers, MEC's, MPs and invited guests misinterpreted the theme to be traditional wear with Parliamentarians transformed into swans by make-up artists. The theme lacked creativity and excitement and there were too many traditional outfits it felt like we took a bus back to the festive season and all the Migidi?s (ceremonies) that were happening all around. We doubt many of those outfits were new. We look at the fashion statements from politicians as they converged for the State of the Nation Address yesterday at the Cape Town City Hall ahead of President Cyril Ramaphosa's SONA delivery.
