It makes sense, right, for summer to be otherwise known as ‘The Season of Wearing Less’? Given that the sun is scorching hot (remember to wear your sunscreen and top it up often kids) and that there’ll be plenty of poolside hangouts, we invite you to get inspo from our November/December 2023 cover star Takkies Dinwiddy who proudly showed off her mom bod, while also inspiring us to love and appreciate our bodies.
Styled by Jessica Ramoshaba of Fouura, a styling agency with a strong emphasis on sustainable fashion and changing mindsets towards conscious fashion, the style was simple yet impactful to reflect Takkies’ infectious personality. Peep some of our favourite looks below…
