By now it has been established that supermodel and fashion icon Naomi Campbell is our sister, as she has made it evident that Africa, as a whole, has a special place in her heart.
She's no stranger to various African countries and pictures of Mam'Winnie Madikizela Mandela and Nelson Mandela are scattered all over her Instagram feed.

She even suggested that there be a Vogue Africa edition when she attended Arise Fashion Week in Lagos, Nigeria.
It comes as no surprise then that earlier this week she was spotted in an item from one of our most talented local designers Rich Mnisi during her Good Morning Britain interview, marking the end of her Global Citizen: Mandela 100 celebrations.
The Xiluva jumpsuit is part of Rich Mnisi's NWA-MULAMULA: Lobola '19 collection, which showed at Lagos Fashion Week in October. The collection is symbolic of "packaging that transports [the designer] back home."
And as we predicted, the world's greatest performer Beyoncé Knowles Carter, wore more of our local designers' offerings during her Global Citizen Festival visit to South Africa.
Okay, she didn't wear the local labels we predicted, but it was a still a treat to see Queen Bey sporting other South African designers we love and whose collections we covet.
After arriving at Lanseria Airport last Thursday in Sarah Diouf's Tongoro Studio ZANZI two-piece, the multi-Grammy Award-winning singer took to the stage on Sunday night in a Quiteria & George gown that they collaborated on with actress Enhle Mbali Maphumulo.
The elation expressed in the design duo's caption is testament to the fact that dressing a star of Bey's caliber is no small feat.
Another local designer who can relate is Mmuso Maxwell, who makes women's ready to wear clothing. Beyoncé's stylist Zerina Akers dressed her in an ensemble from Mmuso Maxwell's Spring/Summer '16 collection for a chic daytime look.
Rich Mnisi's threads were again seen on Bey. She wore Mnisi's custom Rhundzu Blouse and Crocodile Half-pleat skirt - a moment of absolute joy and pride for the young designer.
And then of course, Mrs Carter wore Tongoro for the fourth time this year, as the first and only celebrity to ever don this two-year old Senegalese label. This time, she went for the custom MALIKI suit - a tribute to Malick Sidibé's work, who is Diouf's "number 1 inspiration".
This is all proof that "Africa, your time is now" is not just an empty phrase.
