He captioned the post 'She was a fairy,' and paired it perfectly with the song 'Fairy' by Myaap.
For the curious fans who always ask how he does it, he shared a GRWM (Get Ready With Me) video showing folk how he put the extravagant outfit together using a whole lot of tape and even shows off how the fairy wings work.
If you've followed Ndiwavho's work, you'll know this isn't his first jaw-dropping design.
He's become known for transforming everyday shopping bags into high-fashion looks.
One of his most talked-about projects was a full outfit made using black Woolworths shopping bags.
The look that garnered six million views showed him in a floor-length mermaid-style gown with puffy long sleeves and a dramatic train.
In fact, Woolworths even gave him a shoutout for his designs, saying they loved how his creativity lines up with their push toward sustainability.
He's even used bags from other stores, including Shoprite, Mr Price and Pick and Pay, to come up with different styles.

'Who the hell is that?': Rasta's Presley Chweneyagae portrait irks public

Rasta has done it again with another celebrity portrait that has left South Africans fuming. The Zimbabwean artist, Lebani Sirenje, unveiled his portrait of the late Presley Chweneyagae at his funeral on Saturday, 7 June. The service for he late actor took place at the Akasia Community Hall in Pretoria. On X, images of Rasta's painting of Presley Chweneyagae at the actor's funeral service had social media users up in arms. In the art picture, the painter shared his likeness of the Cobrizi star. In a second portrait, Rasta recreated the poster for Tsotsi, the 2004 feature film which gave Presley his breakout role. However, South Africans were not remotely convinced that the man in either of the portraits was the late screen star. X user @tlhonolo_ posted: 'Who the hell is that supposed to be?' Some were even angered by Rasta's attempt at creating Presley Chweneyagae's image. Another X user, @KkKakaza, added, 'Someone close to Rasta must tell him to hand himself over to the nearest police station. KZN SAPS is looking for him.' In 2023, the then Minister of Sport, Art, and Culture, Zizi Kodwa, sternly warned Rasta over his portrait of the late singer Zahara. In one viral pic posted on X, the minister was seen chatting to Rasta. Like the portrait of Presley Chweneyagae, Rasta's painting of Zahara went down in flames on social media. Images via X: @lesufipanyaza Gauteng Premier Penyaza Lesufi posted on X at the time: 'The Minister @zizikodwa is seriously engaging Rasta on the sidelines about his drawings of Zahara.'

'Boycott Woolworths': TV preacher reacts to Pride campaign

A popular Christian TV preacher has condemned Woolworths' Pride initiative, which has continued to court controversy amongst shoppers. The retailer recently revealed its campaign supporting the LGBTQ community during the month of June. Featuring clothing and merchandise, the range is available in stores and online. Last week, Woolworths introduced its Pride campaign to shoppers in line with the month of Pride, which celebrates the LGBTQ community. Unlike previous years, the retailer turned off comments on their social media platforms, likely to curb criticism and homophobic comments from the public. On Facebook, Christian preacher Errol Naidoo, who presents the shows Salt & Light and Watchmen on the Wall on TBN Africa, shared his scathing views of the campaign. Naidoo – who is also the founder of South Africa's Family Policy Institute – posted: 'Woolworths appears to be the only retailer pushing LGBTQ 'Pride' indoctrination on its shoppers, including children'. He continued: ''Pride' month and the destructive anti-family ideology it promotes have largely been discredited around the world. Woolworths sees no contradiction in promoting Father's Day and the sexual rights ideology that makes marriage and the family obsolete – in their stores'. The ordained minister added: 'Boycott Woolworths in the month of June. Do not support sexual indoctrination'. Woolworths appear to be the only retailer pushing LGBTQ 'pride' indoctrination on its shoppers including children…. Posted by Errol Naidoo on Friday 6 June 2025 Naidoo's comments come as many other social media users have condemned the campaign and threatened to boycott the stores. While many corporations have skipped Pride campaigns this year out of fear of public backlash and financial repercussions, Woolworths has continued to stand firm with the LGBTQ community as proud allies. However, the company has scaled back its in-store displays and turned off its social media comments. It has also shunned speaking out on its controversial stance. Last year, the retailer stated that the campaign encouraged the public to 'own, express, and celebrate their identity.' It added: 'Our Pride campaign is part of the Woolworths Inclusive Justice Initiative – acting against discrimination and marginalisation.'

Rasta faces fresh backlash over controversial new portrait of Presley Chweneyagae

Controversial Zimbabwean-born portrait artist Lebani Sirenje, famously known as Rasta, is back in the spotlight, and so is the criticism. This time, the target of his brush is the late actor Presley Chweneyagae, best known for his lead role in Tsotsi. Rasta unveiled the painting of Chweneyagae this week, and while some praised his effort, many social media users found the piece unrecognisable. ' Whether you love or question his work, one thing's for sure- Rasta shows up to honour our legends,' posted Tinashe Eugene Mushanguri on Facebook. 'Who is this supposed to be?' asked one user on Facebook, referring to the painting. He joked, 'Rasta has to be stopped. Seriously, we need a petition.' This isn't Rasta's first run-in with public scrutiny. Over the years, Rasta painted countless public figures, often at funerals or memorials, and each time, Mzansi has something to say. From Winnie Madikizela-Mandela to Oliver Mtukudzi, his art tends to trend, sometimes for the wrong reasons. But Rasta has always stood by his work. As the Presley portrait continues to trend, one thing is clear: Rasta's work, however it's received, has become part of South Africa's cultural fabric. Chweneyagae, affectionately known to many as 'Cobrizi' or 'Mokwepa,' passed away last week at his home in the city. He was 40. Chweneyagae rose to fame for his powerful performance in Tsotsi , the gritty South African drama that went on to win the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film in 2006. You've probably seen a Rasta painting. But before all that, he was just a kid in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, born in 1977, drawing whatever caught his eye. He started sketching around age seven and never really looked back. No art degree, no formal training, just years of practice. More than ten years ago, he crossed the border into South Africa, like a lot of Zimbabweans trying to find something more. That's when he went pro. These days, he's known for painting portraits of famous people, mostly after they die, and like it or not, his work always gets a reaction.
