The Best Dressed Stars at the Metro FM Music Awards Nominees Party

It takes someone with exceptional personal style to transform a full black look into a stunning spectacle.

When Metro FM announced the "Shades of Black Cocktail" dress code for their nominees announcement party, it was an opportunity for celebrities to push the boundaries of fashion.

Instead of reverting to the usual, these stars opted for elegance, creativity, and flair. From lace and brocade to leather and embroidered gowns, they showcased the best of South African style.

These were the best dressed people at the Metro FM Music Awards Nominees Party

Teko Modise

You can always count on the former footballer to be one of the best-dressed people at an event. His dedication to style and his drive to always make an impact when dressing up, has made him one of the best dressed people in the country. Wearing the on-trend barrel-leg trousers in black, he expertly styled them with an asymmetrical hemmed leather shacket, a crips white shirt and a bowtie.

Mia Le Roux

Since beginning her reign, Mia has had a great style run, and she once again knocked it out of the park in a strapless black gown with pearl beading and opera gloves! She slicked her hair back and wore a vampy red lip to drive home her Old Hollywood style!

Langa Mavuso

The musician is one of the most stylish in the country and it was a surprise when they were not nominated for Best Styled Artist. Nevertheless, he still showed out in an edgy black mock reptilian textured mock leather jacket and trousers, with an oversized silhouette. He paired it with a black tie and a white shirt

Siphesihle Vazi

As the co-host of the event, all eyes were always going to be on the Selimathunzi presenter, and knowing this, he turned to AFI’s House of Nala. Wearing a custom-made look by House of Nala’s K.Moraba & Collective, he looked debonair. With the brocade-textured cropped tuxedo blazer, the trousers with complementary brocade piping, and a tailored black bedazzled shirt, he looked every inch the star he is.

Zola Zee Lovin

When Zola walked the Black Carpet, camera flashes kept going non-stop and it’s understandable- she looked drop dead gorgeous. Wearing a black lace gown by the AFI Atelier, the evening’s co-host made sure she was the best dressed at the event.

DJ Sabby

Metro FM's breakfast show host, DJ Sabby, has been experimenting with his style for a few years now and its working. Never satisfied with going the tried and tested route, he successfully showed his mettle at the announcement party in a simple, but impactful look. The bedazzled shacket really made him one of the best dressed at the event.
