Politicians, musicians, and celebrities arrived in their most glamorous looks for one of South Africa’s biggest political events – the State of the Nation Address (Sona), making it almost as much about fashion as politics.

Sona is a joint sitting of the two houses of parliament in Cape Town to mark the start of the government’s work for the year, where President Cyril Ramaphosa paints a picture of where the country stands and outlines the road ahead.

In his speech, President Ramaphosa talked about the nation’s resilience, earning rapturous applause when he declared, “South Africa will not be bullied.”

His stance comes after his US counterpart Donald Trump threatened to cut off funding over South Africa’s land policy.
