The Hollywoodbets Durban July is set to make waves this year with its captivating theme, #RideTheWave, inspiring an ocean of creativity among attendees.

Among the fashion-forward crowd, Mohale Motaung is gearing up to make a statement with his collaboration with popular designer Masango by Siphosihle.

Mohale shared his excitement about the highly-awaited event and the inspiration behind his outfit.

He told The Citizen: “I love the theme #RideTheWave! It’s a great play on the horse racing aspect of the Durban July, and it allows for so many creative interpretations in terms of fashion and style.”

The reality show star and businessman said his collaboration with Masango by Siphosihle will bring a fresh and dynamic look to the event.

“My choice of outfit was inspired by the ocean and its various shades of blue, from calm waves to stormy seas. I want my look to reflect the movement and energy of the waves!”
