On the 13th of February 2020, which also marked World Radio Day, President Cyril Ramaphosa delivered his State of the Nation Address to the people of South Africa.
Besides all the drama before the president was able to deliver the speech and the content of the speech itself, we know that you may want to see some of the fashion that was on display.

(Hint: the clues to the answer are in this post)
The event is in its sixth year and has grown from 8 000 guests to more than 15 000 guests in the last five years.
The purpose of the event is to “bring people together”, with a simple request that all the guests dress in all white with a touch of gold.
Guests can expect to spend an extraordinary afternoon and evening with friends and family, filled with delicious food and music. This year’s entertainment programme will feature many acts, including BUSISWA at the star-studded event and many more.
South Africa’s upcoming fashion designers will be showcasing their designs at the “Grand Fashion Show”, that will leave guests speechless.
According to Grand White CEO, Stephan Dau, they are ecstatic to bring yet another creative venture to the people and to share something that promotes unity, freedom, and friendship.
