Known for its fabulous fashion – and horseracing of course – Africa’s richest race day will be taking place on 27 January 2018.

We are taking a look back at some of our favourite looks from last year.

Who can forget the floral ensemble actress Amanda du Pont wore to last year's Sun Met? Du Pont looked like a vision.

Khanyi Mbau shimmered in a champagne number with a high slit.

Rapper Nomuzi Mabena didn't disappoint in finger-waves and fringe.

We are looking forward to what our favourite celebs will be wearing this year. The theme is ‘Style ahead of the Field'

We have a few tips for some our fashion loving readers to keep in mind when picking an outfit.

• Go with colours, prints and textures inspired by Africa
• Your creation should reflect expressions of Summer
• Absolutely turn on the glitz & glamour
• Be daring and bold
• And lastly have fun!  

But that's not all on offer; you can stand a chance to win tickets to the Sun Met on Saturday. Alcohol brand THE Glenlivet has decided to join in on the spectacle by having a lavish marquee at the event for the first time. They will be offering an experience of live jazz headlined by Judith Sephuma and Jimmy Nevis in their marquee. Read the competition details below:
