Award-winning rapper Kwesta turned heads at the 2025 Durban July this weekend, stepping out in a breathtaking floral-themed ensemble alongside his wife, Yolanda Vilakazi. Dressed in a striking floral-themed suit alongside his equally radiant wife, the couple turned heads and bloomed with elegance.

Taking to social media ahead of the event, Kwesta captioned a snapshot of his look with the words: “This July… I’ll take my flowers, thank you. 😉 Something Namaqualand.” The caption, as cleverly layered as his lyrics, blended swagger with sentiment — a nod to the theme of this year’s event and perhaps a metaphor for long-overdue recognition.
The “Spirit” hitmaker donned a tailored suit blooming with vibrant flower patterns, reminiscent of South Africa’s breathtaking Namaqualand flower fields — a visual love letter to heritage, growth, and grace. By his side, his wife was stunned in a designer floral gown that perfectly complemented the theme, turning the couple into a walking bouquet of style and symbolism.
Social media erupted in admiration, with fans and fashion enthusiasts praising the duo for their coordination and creative interpretation of the theme. While many came to bet on the races, it was clear who the real winners of the day were.
Kwesta’s subtle declaration — “I’ll take my flowers” — felt like a personal victory lap, a celebration of longevity in the game, and a reminder that recognition, much like style, is always best served fresh. Flowers taken. Statement made. Durban July never smelled this good.
