Hot autumn looks from Ayanda Thabethe and more stars
Animal prints are making a big comeback (as if they ever left!) with media personalities Nomuzi 'Moozlie' Mabena and Ayanda Thabethe taking a daring approach with full-on leopard and cheetah printed outfits.
Earth tones, chocolate hues and rich burgundy colours are undoubtedly colours of the season, pairing perfectly with autumn's cosy aura.
Pastels are still making a mark in fashion this season, with baby pinks, soft blues and lavender hues a favourite for many stars.

An Hermès Bag and a Useless Belt Are Beach Essentials…When You're Kate Moss
Last night I found myself, in the first week of August, sensing a hint of autumn in the air. Rather than gnashing my teeth at the prospect of the summer slipping away, I took the opportunity to watch an episode of Gilmore Girls (which, legally, you can only do in autumn), and was reminded of the totally deranged storyline in which a teenage Rory is given a Birkin by an equally teenage Logan Huntzberger. While I am willing to suspend disbelief up to a point, even I have my limits, and I'm thrown off by this bizarre exercise in gift-giving each time a clip pops up on my timeline. But personal gripes aside, one thing they did get right is the awe that surrounded the accessory. (Lest we forget Rory's alarmed grandmother chirping: 'That is a very nice bag.') It's been a big year for the Birkin: recently, the world's most obsessive second-hand shoppers came together to witness the sale of Jane Birkin's original Hermès creation (it fetched a cool $10.1 million). Which feels like a fitting moment to consider how a bag as valuable as a Birkin should be treated (chucked around, possibly even run over, if you are an Olsen?)

‘I'm grateful for the love' - Thembinkosi Mthembu on staying booked and busy
We were first introduced to him as Mabutho on The River, and his career has since pivoted, and it continues to surge. He's become one of the most recognisable faces on the small screen and is showing no signs of slowing down. Award-winning actor Thembinkosi Mthembu chats with Drum to discuss his latest role on Mzansi Magic's 'Homecoming.' In this exclusive interview, he reveals the secret behind his ability to master every character he portrays and gives insight into his exciting upcoming projects. 'To be honest, there's no secret to me getting more work, it's just how I treat my colleagues, the way I conduct myself on set. For example, I didn't audition for my first role at Tshedza Pictures, we just had one meeting and the role was mine,' he says, 'I'm very grateful for the love and support that I'm receiving from the public' Throughout his career thus far, the heartthrob has shown dedication to his craft. His sterling portrayal of his current role as Sifiso in Homecoming bears testimony to his impeccable work ethic. 'My current role on Homecoming is different from previous work; it's challenging. All the fighting. I respect my work, which is why I'm able to secure more work, and I even coined a nickname for my role on Adulting, which I don't like,' he chuckles, adding that he always gets a break between his roles. 'I always get a break before starting a new job, even if it's a week'. With such a hectic work schedule, just when does that star get time to retreat? Well, he says that although he has a busy work schedule, he can make time for family. 'When I'm not working, I'm at the gym or I'm with family here in Jozi or KZN. As busy as I am, I do make time for my family. I came to Johannesburg to work; this is the reason I hardly take a break. I'm just grateful for the opportunities that I continue to get, because the industry is tough,' he quips. While the fact that he spends a lot of time at work may not be ideal, he doesn't like complaining, as he is aware of the fact that he came to Johannesburg to work, and in the industry he's in, not many of his peers can usher in new work opportunities as frequently as he does. 'I can't complain about anything, my mission was to work when I got here, so being able to work is nothing short of a blessing'. Since the start of his career, he has remained unstoppable, and as he undertakes new ventures in the best future, Thembinkosi remains upbeat that he'll continue to keep his work ethic. 'In 2026 and 2027, there are projects that I'm working on with Angus Gibson. We've already spoken about them, and it's only a matter of time before we start working on them,' he concludes.

Maryam Nassir Zadeh Fall 2025 Ready-to-Wear Collection
Maryam Nassir Zadeh's fall collection is a reminder that how you wear your clothes is as important as what you put on. This season's lookbook, photographed in a Parisian apartment, is a kind of masterclass in defying convention and exciting the eye. See how cinching a belt inches above the waistline creates an unexpected proportion? Or how tights paired with lucite wedges are so wrong they're right? Nassir Zadeh makes little distinction between men and women; both genders tuck their pants into their boots and both are photographed in a delicious bubblegum-pink leather blouson jacket. In one photo a male model ties a cummerbund-shaped bi-color belt over a pair of luxuriously pleated pants; it's unexpected and effective in zhuzhing up a basic outfit. In Nassir Zadeh's world, spontaneity is encouraged and non-clothes become wearable—that suede fringe that's worn as a skirt is just a narrow band that you can wind around a neck, a wrist, or on top of another garment. One of the foundation pieces of this collection is a bustier top, à la '70s Saint Laurent Rive Gauche. There's one in orange embellished with shell discs that look like Necco wafers. By creating an off-the-shoulder neckline and accessorizing with animal-print boots, a tiered dress goes beyond boho. 'I think for fall there's a vibrancy and an element of uplifting celebration and illuminating something,' said Nassir Zadeh, who explained that the season was in many ways an homage to her beloved grandmother. The designer was actually bringing together memories from her life with her nana, and revisiting her own repertoire. 'The mix is so interesting and yet familiar,' she said. Also a bit off, to great effect. There are a lot of patterned silks of the kind Princess Diana favored in the '80s. These are used for ruffle hemmed skirts and a Juliet-sleeved top. The composition of some of the photos vaguely recall Sheila Metzner's work from that era too—but the MNZ magic is to elude categorization, all the better to let the spirit run free.
