If you were following social media at all you would definitely know that Cape Town was the place to be this weekend, and if you were not in the Mother City, we definitely understand your FOMO.
Local celebs who were in Cape Town this weekend were met with picture-perfect weather and premium champagne brand, G.H. Mumm, ensured the sunny conditions were experienced in style. After a yacht sailed out of the Cape Town Harbour for a cruise with some of South Africa’s most loved personalities aboard, Maison Mumm hosted an intimate dinner at bar-bistro, The stack.
As the first month of the new decade came to a close; fashion designer Rich Mnisi, actress Jessica Nkosi, TV personality Ayanda Thabethe and her popular MUA sister Lungile Thabethe, brand influencer Tshepi Vundla and her musician hubby JR along with events darling Precious the Planner, brand influencer Lerato Sengadi and health advocate Dr Sivu enjoyed a leisurely cruise off the Port of Cape Town.
When they had made the most of Cape Town’s generous daylight hours, guests of G.H. Mumm headed out to dinner at Cape Town eatery, The Stack, where fine French cuisine and an eclectic African inspired setting set the ideal scene for the dinner themed Afrique Du Luxe. Content creators Sarah Langa and Kefilwe Mabote, both fluent in the art of expressing luxury through the African filter joined the dinner party. Arriving in black and gold dresses, each of them personalised their interpretations of this classic colour combination. Fashion designer to African stars Gert-Johan Coetzee joined the table of beautiful guests in a fitted sports luxe outfit with chicly accentuated shoulders simply branded Gert. Celeb couple Tshepi Vundla and JR both made visual nods to the patterns of the continent with Tshepi opting for striking head to toe leopard print in a flattering jumpsuit cinched stylishly at the waist with a Gucci belt and JR going for Ghanaian kente print pants.
“With the turn of the decade having triggered our appreciation for new beginnings, we have been actively celebrating that in the month of January and we thought a Mumm Weekend would be a fitting way to close out the first month of 2020, “ G.H. Mumm Brand Manager, Khotso Mpakanyane, said during the toast.
“Everyone who is at this table represents the best of the G.H. Mumm brand whether in their track record of daring excellence or their ability to stand out in how they express themselves. Some have crossed paths with the brand over the years and others we look forward to celebrating more moments like this with going forward. This toast is for all you,” he said.
